Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup water
  • 2/3 cup white sugar
  • 1/2 cup walnut halves
  • 4 egg whites
  • 2/3 cup cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 pound large shrimp, 18-20 count, peeled and deveined
  • 2 tablespoons honey
  • 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup vegetable oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Make a small saucepan by adding the water, sugar, and walnuts.
  • After boiling for two minutes, remove the walnuts and dry them on a dish.
  • Combine egg whites and cornstarch, whisking until foamy.
  • Once the shrimp are added to the batter, use a fork or my favorite pigtail flipper to pick up one shrimp at a time and allow the batter to drip off so they maintain their shape.
  • Fry until golden brown in medium-sized oil (350 degrees) for 4-5 minutes.
  • The sauce can be made by whisking together honey, mayonnaise, and sweetened condensed milk.
  • Toss the fried shrimp with the sauce and coat well.
  • Add the candied walnuts to the serving plate.
  • Prepare steamed rice and serve immediately.
  • You can top with sliced scallions if you wish.
