First I made Honey Walnut Shrimp, this was so good! Here's the recipe:
1 lb. 31/40 count shrimp/prawn
1/2 up Walnut halves, must be the walnut halves
3 TBSP Mayonnaise
1/2 TBSP honey
1/2 TBSP sweetened condensed milk
1 tsp. lemon juice
1 egg white
1/2 cup corn starch
oil for frying
For the Walnuts:
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup water
Peel and deveined the shrimp/prawn. Pat dry with paper towels, add the egg white, mix well with the shrimp and set aside.
Rinse the walnut halves with water, drain and set aside.
Heat up the water until it boils and add in the sugar.
Keep stirring until it turns thick and golden color and then add the walnut.
Boil for 2 minutes, then drain and place walnuts on a cookie sheet/parchment paper to dry.
Heat the oil in a wok over high heat.
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.
In a bowl, stir together the mayonnaise, honey, condensed milk and lemon juice.
Add shrimp and toss with the mayonnaise sauce.
Transfer to a serving plate and garnish the candid walnuts on top of the shrimp and serve immediately. Here's the website it came from rasamalaysia.com/chinese-food-recipe-honey-walnut/
