How To Make honey walnut shrimp

Step 1Peel and deveined the shrimp/prawn. Pat dry with paper towels, add the egg white, mix well with the shrimp and set aside.
-
Step 2Rinse the walnut halves with water, drain and set aside.

Step 3Heat up the water until it boils and add in the sugar.
-
Step 4Keep stirring until it turns thick and golden color and then add the walnut.
-
Step 5Boil 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).
-
Step 6Heat the oil in a wok over high heat.
-
Step 7Coat 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.
-
Step 8In a bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, honey, condensed milk and lemon juice.
-
Step 9Add shrimp and toss with the mayonnaise sauce.
-
Step 10Transfer 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)
