Sweet Sriracha Shrimp Tempura Recipes

Steps:

• Mix shallots, soy sauce, sake, hot pepper sauce, cilantro, and ginger together in a bowl; let sit, about 2 hours.
• Mix 1 cup rice flour, seltzer water, and egg yolk together in a bowl.
• Split shrimp down the center, cutting almost but not completely through, and open flat. Pat with paper towel to dry; dust with 1/2 cup rice flour. Dip shrimp in batter until thoroughly covered.
• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Cook shrimp in small batches in oil until golden brown, about 7 minutes. Remove shrimp from oil and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil. Serves dipping sauce alongside the shrimp.

Steps:

• Combine sugar and 1 tablespoon water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; cook, undisturbed, until light golden, about 5 minutes. Add walnuts; cook, stirring, until deep golden, about 1 minute. Transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single layer. Season with salt. Let cool completely while preparing the shrimp.
• Meanwhile, in a large bowl, whisk mayonnaise, honey, sriracha, and lemon juice; season with salt.
• Heat 2 inches safflower oil to 375 degrees over medium heat in a heavy-bottomed pot or deep skillet. In a separate large bowl, whisk together egg yolk, club soda, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Gently stir in rice flour. Season shrimp with salt. Holding each by the tail, dip shrimp in batter one at a time and fry in small batches until crisp, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove with slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels. (Allow oil to return to 375 degrees between batches.)
• Transfer shrimp to bowl with mayonnaise mixture. Toss to coat. Stir in walnuts. Serve immediately with lemon wedges over a bed of fresh steamed broccoli.
