Mix the bread crumbs with the cumin, coriander, salt and pepper. Set aside.
Whisk the egg in a medium bowl. Next, take a shrimp and coat it in the egg mixture and then roll it in the bread crumb mixture making sure it is completely coated. Place on a plate and continue this process until you have coated all of the shrimp.
In a medium skillet set over medium high heat add the sunflower oil and bring up to temperature. It should be hot enough after about 2 minutes. Check it by dipping one shrimp in the hot oil. If it sizzles, then it is ready. If not, give it another minute or so. Cook shrimp in batches ensuring that they all have space and are not on top of each other. Cook each side for a couple of minutes or until crispy and golden colour. Remove from pan and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels.
Serve with Minted Yogurt Dip.
The Dip
Combine the yogurt, mint leaves, garlic, lemon juice and salt in a small bowl. Whisk to combine and it's done.
