How To Make honey walnut shrimp

Step 1

To make the candied walnuts, melt the butter, sugar and water together in a non-stick pan. Stir continuously until sugar is dissolved and turns light golden brown. Add walnuts and mix well. Stir continuously for about 3-5 mins. Or until deep golden brown. Right away, pour candied walnuts onto parchment paper and spread evenly so they don't stick together. Let cool and set aside.

Step 2

To prepare the shrimp, season the shrimp with salt and pepper. Combine the cornstarch, rice flour, water and baking soda together. Mix well. Coat the shrimp in the mixture.
Step 3

For the sauce, mix all ingredients together and set aside.
Step 4

In a wok, heat enough oil for a shallow fry. On med-high heat, fry shrimp for 2 mins on each side or until cooked through. Strain in a bowl lined with paper towels to dry out any excess oil.
Step 5

In a bowl, mix mayo sauce, fried shrimp, and candied walnuts together. Plate with steamed broccoli, if you like.
