  • 1Tbsp.scallions(green parts only, chopped)
Instructions
For Shrimp:
  1. Rinse the shrimp and pat dry with paper towels. Season with salt.
  2. Mix bread crumbs and corn starch together and toss shrimp in the mixture (I do all of this in a gallon-sized ziploc bag).
  3. In a large skillet, melt the butter in the oil and fry shrimp over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until golden brown.
    Note: It's easier to do this in small batches of about 8 shrimp at a time, since they cook so fast.
  4. Drain shrimp on paper towels and set aside. Make sauce recipe below.
For Coconut Cream Sauce:
  1. In a sauce pan over low heat, combine the coconut cream, evaporated milk and vanilla extract.
  2. Add condensed milk and stir.
  3. When the coconut mixture starts to bubble, add scallions. Let the mixture simmer for about 3 minutes until the liquid gets reduced by 1/3. Add the mayonnaise and whisk constantly until combined.
  4. Place shrimp in the cream mixture. Heat and stir the shrimp to incorporate the coconut cream. Turn off the heat when the coconut mixture reaches the boiling point.
  5. Plate and serve hot on its own, with rice, lo mein or whatever your heart desires!
