Honey Walnut Shrimp
Serves 4
Ingredients:
1 pound 31-40 shrimp (peeled & deveined)1/2 cup walnut halves
3 tbsp mayonnaise
1 tbsp honey
1/4 tbsp condensed milk
1 teaspoon lemon juice
1 lg egg white
1/2 cup corn starch (for coating shrimp)
1/4 cup pineapple chunk, fresh (optional)
canola oil (for frying)
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
1 Peel and deveined the shrimp/prawn. Pat dry with paper towels, add the egg white, mix well with the shrimp and set aside.
2 Rinse the walnut halves with water, drain and set aside.
3 Heat up the water until it boils and add in the sugar.
4 Keep stirring until it turns thick and golden color and then add the walnut.
5 Boil for 2 minutes, then drain and place walnuts on a cookie sheet/parchment paper to dry. (Regular paper will not work as the walnut will stick to it).
6 Heat the oil in a wok over high heat.
7 Coat the shrimp with a thick layer of corn starch and then fry in the hot oil until golden brown. Remove the shrimps from the wok and drain on paper towels.
8 In a bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, honey, condensed milk and lemon juice.
9 Add shrimp and toss with the mayonnaise sauce.
10 Transfer to a serving plate and garnish the candied walnuts on top of the shrimp and serve immediately. (if desired, you can also add the pineapple chunk for garnish)
