    | 1. Place the ginger, chilies and cilantro in a food processor and process them until everything is finely minced, scraping down the bowl as needed. | 2. Put the mixture into a small work bowl and add the shrimp; mix and stir well until the shrimp are well-coated. | 3. Add the turmeric and mix, making sure the shrimp are again well-coated. | 4. Cover or wrap and place in the refrigerator to marinate for at least 3 hours. | 5. When ready to cook, remove the shrimp from the refrigerator, mix in the salt, and allow to stand for 10 minutes. | 6. Put about 1/3 of the Cream of Rice (use a little if not enough to coat all the shrimp) in a medium-sized plastic bag (do not use all the Cream of Rice at once or the marinade on the shrimp will make it too moist to coat the shrimp evenly). | 7. Pour enough oil into a small, deep saucepan to cover 6 of the shrimp completely at one time and begin to heat the oil until hot enough to fry the shrimp. | 8. While the oil is heating, put 6 shrimp into the plastic bag, close the bag, and toss to coat evenly with the Cream of Rice. | 9. Place the shrimp on a slotted spoon and ease them into the hot oil; they should sizzle immediately. | 10. Turn after 1 minute and fry for another minute, or until evenly golden. | 11. Remove the shrimp to paper towels to absorb any excess oil, and repeat the process with another 1/4 cup Cream of Rice and 6 shrimp. | 12. Repeat the process one more time with the last 6 shrimp, then serve, garnished with lemon wedges. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
