Total Time: 1 hr
Servings: 2
Yield: 2 servings

Ingredients

  1. 1 tablespoon egg white
  2. ¼ teaspoon salt
  3. 8 ounces uncooked medium shrimp, peeled and deveined
  4. ¼ cup water
  5. ¼ cup white sugar
  6. ½ cup walnut halves
  7. 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
  8. ½ tablespoon honey
  9. ½ tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
  10. 1 teaspoon lemon juice
  11. ⅓ cup cornstarch
  12. vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Mix egg white and salt together in a bowl; add shrimp and toss to coat evenly. Cover and let shrimp marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
  2. Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan. Add sugar; cook until dissolved, about 1 minute. Add walnuts. Turn heat down to medium-low. Cook, stirring occasionally, until syrup thickens and turns into a dark caramel color, 4 to 7 minutes.
  3. Line a baking sheet. Pour walnuts onto the baking sheet, spacing the pieces apart. Let cool.
  4. Mix mayonnaise, honey, condensed milk, and lemon juice together in a small bowl for the dressing.
  5. Drain excess liquid from the shrimp. Place cornstarch in a plastic sandwich bag. Toss shrimp in the cornstarch in batches.
  6. Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a medium to large pot to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Drop shrimp carefully into the hot oil in batches; fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch. Drain on paper towels to preserve crispiness.
  7. Serve shrimp with the walnuts and honey dressing.
  8. We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. Amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and specific type of oil used.

Unfortunately, no one in the family enjoyed this. It just wasn’t our taste.
