Recreating LSC's Mayonnaise Shrimp Down South

Hey There-

After a recent trip to Chinatown, my family has requested that I recreate LSC's mayonnaise shrimp. I see lots of online recipes for "mayonnaise shrimp" but I'm unsure as to which one to trust. It seems to me the shrimps are dipped in some type of egg wash and deep fried. Does anyone have any pointers?

Thanks!

Tom

Look for Honey Walnut shrimp recipes -- they're pretty close

Shrimp are quick brined, then coated in rice flour batter before deep frying. There's an orange (?) element also. Orange juice/frozen concentrate combined into mayonnaise base, then crisp shrimp quickly coated in mixture. ???

Thanks for the pointers! I'm cooking the dish tonight. In case I completely fail, I'm also preparing crispy roast pork belly according to this month's Saveur. I was planning to use kewpie mayo because it's awesome, but I forgot it at the Asian store, so I'll use Hellman's.

HI,

I am always asking my relatives to bring Duke's Mayo from your region. Do you use it?

Regards,

I'd suggest thinning out the Hellman's first. It has a much thicker consistency right out of the jar than Kewpee.

The pork belly recipe looked terrific. Please post on how that goes as well.
