Rock'n Shrimp Ingredients
Method
Preparation Directions
Prepare the Slaw
In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, shredded carrot, rice vinegar, sugar, and salt. Toss well to combine and let sit for at least 15 minutes.
Prepare the Shrimp
In a bowl, mix all-purpose flour, cornstarch, salt, and black pepper. Gradually add ice water to form a smooth batter.
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Fry the Shrimp
Dip shrimp into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place in hot oil and fry in batches until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Prepare the Sauce
In a small bowl, mix sweet chili sauce and Sriracha sauce. Adjust Sriracha to taste for desired spiciness.
Assemble the Dish
Serve crispy shrimp topped with the sweet and spicy sauce, garnished with chopped scallions and toasted sesame seeds. Serve alongside pickled vegetable slaw.
