المقادير
Main Ingredients
- 500s gram shrimp. Preferred to use fresh if not (make sure that frozen is fully thawed)
- Spring onions for garnish
- Toasted sesame is optional
Sauce Ingredients
- 1/2 cupmayonnaise
- 1/3 cupsweet chili
- 2 TablespoonsSriracha sauce
Batter Ingredients
- 1 Cupflour (more if needed)
- 1/2 Cupstarch (or corn flour if starch is not available)
- 1 TablespoonBaking Powder
- 1/2 TSPSalt
- 330 MLSoda Water
الطريقة
- Mix the mayonnaise, sweet chili, and Sriracha sauce with a whisk.
- Set sauce aside for flavors to infuse.
- Taste after 10 minute and then add more Sriracha sauce to increase spiciness.
- Dry shrimps with paper towel so the batter can stick better.
- Mix the flour, starch, salt, and baking powder.
- Bring a skillet of oil to heat.
- Pour the soda water into the flour mixture and whisk away. If the batter is too thin you can add flour one tablespoon at a time until you get desired consistency. It will remain transparent when you dip the shrimp, you want it to be light and crunchy.
- Dip the shrimp into the batter, and then immediately move it to the oil.
- Fry both sides until golden then drain in a colander to get rid of the excess oil.
- Toss the fried shrimp into the sauce one batch at a time to ensure even distribution of the sauce.
- Garnish with spring onions and serve.
