Tortitas de Camaron con Mojo de Ajo

1 lb shrimp, cooked, peeled, and deveined

1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon pepper
2 large eggs

1/4 cup beer
2 tbsp. sofrito
Garlic powder

Coarsely chop shrimp, set aside.
Beat flour and next 5 ingredients at medium speed with an electric mixer until smooth.
Stir in shrimp, and the rest of the ingredients; cover and chill 2 hours.

Fry in plenty of hot oil, drop batter by rounded tablespoonfuls, and fry, in batches, 5 minutes or until golden. Drain on paper towels. This makes about 10, so double the recipe.

Dipping Sauce: 1 garlic head, 1 cup olive oil, run thru blender - that's it. Put in airtight container in the fridge.
