1. Prepare the Mixture:

   • In a food processor or blender, combine the shrimp, tofu, and one egg. Blend until the mixture is smooth and well combined.

2. Mix the Ingredients:

   • Transfer the blended mixture to a large bowl. Stir in the diced carrots, chopped celery, and green onions until evenly distributed.

3. Add the Flours:

   • Gradually incorporate the all-purpose flour and tapioca flour into the mixture. Mix thoroughly until the batter is smooth and consistent.

4. Prepare the Steaming Tray:

   • Grease a clean baking tray with oil or margarine. Pour the batter into the tray, spreading it out evenly.

5. Steam the Batter:

   • Place the tray into a steamer and steam for 30 minutes. Once done, remove the tray and let it cool to room temperature. After cooling, cut the mixture into nugget-sized pieces.

6. Bread the Nuggets:

   • Pour breadcrumbs into a shallow dish. Beat the remaining egg in another bowl.
   • Dip each nugget piece first into the beaten egg, then coat it thoroughly with breadcrumbs. For a crispier coating, repeat the dipping process (egg, then breadcrumbs) and gently press the breadcrumbs onto the nuggets to ensure they stick well.

7. Fry the Nuggets:

   • Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully place the breaded nuggets into the pan.
   • Fry the nuggets until they are golden brown and crispy, turning occasionally to ensure even cooking. Remove the nuggets from the pan and drain on paper towels.

8. Serve:

   • Serve the crispy shrimp and tofu nuggets warm, with your favorite dipping sauce or as a delicious snack.

Enjoy this delightful blend of shrimp and tofu with a crispy coating that’s perfect for any occasion!
