Shrimp Preparation
- 1
Season the Shrimp
In a medium bowl, combine the large shrimp, salt, and black pepper. Toss to coat the shrimp evenly with the seasoning. Set aside for 10 minutes.
- 2
Coat with Cornstarch
After seasoning, sprinkle the cornstarch over the shrimp and toss again to ensure they are evenly coated.

Fry the Shrimp
Dip each cornstarch-coated shrimp into the batter, allowing excess to drip off. Carefully place the shrimp in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Use a slotted spoon to remove the shrimp and drain on paper towels.

Garnish and Serve
Once all shrimp are fried, drizzle the prepared sauce over the shrimp and toss gently. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
