Dynamite Shrimp Recipe

🧂 Ingredients

• 250 g shrimp

  shelled and deveined
• 1 small egg

  lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon soy sauce
• ¼ teaspoon red chili powder
• ½ teaspoon paprika powder
• ¼ teaspoon salt
• Oil for deep frying
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ¼ cup cornflour or cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• A pinch of salt
• ½ cup mayonnaise
• 2 –3 tablespoons sriracha sauce
• 2 teaspoons honey
• 1½ tablespoons tomato ketchup
• Lettuce leaves
• Chopped spring onions or chives
• Black sesame seeds
• White sesame seeds

Instructions

• 1 Begin by preparing the sauce: In a bowl, blend together the mayonnaise, sriracha
  sauce, honey, and tomato ketchup until the mixture is smooth; set it aside to
  allow the flavors to harmonize. Next, season the shrimp by tossing them with red
  chili powder, paprika powder, salt, soy sauce, and the lightly beaten egg until
  every piece is uniformly coated.
• 2 In another dish, mix the all-purpose flour, cornflour (or cornstarch), garlic
  powder, and a pinch of salt to create your dredging mix. Heat the oil in a
  deep-fryer or a heavy-bottomed pan until it reaches the proper temperature for
  deep frying. Using tongs, coat each shrimp in the flour mixture, shaking off any
  excess before gently lowering them into the bubbling oil. Fry the shrimp on
  medium-high heat until they turn a delectable golden brown and achieve a crispy
  texture, approximately 3–4 minutes. Remove them with a slotted spoon and let
  them drain on a sieve, allowing any excess oil to escape, and let cool just
  slightly.
• 3 Transfer the crisped shrimp to a bowl and pour the prepared sauce over them,
  tossing carefully to ensure each shrimp is thoroughly enveloped in the tangy
  dressing. For an appealing presentation, layer some lettuce in a serving bowl or
  glass, place the sauced shrimp atop, and garnish with chopped spring onions (or
  chives) along with a scattering of black and white sesame seeds. Serve
  immediately and enjoy the explosive blend of flavors and textures.
