Time 55m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 small red bird's eye chili, seeded
1 teaspoon honey
4 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons red curry paste
16 wonton wrappers (found in the refrigerated part of the produce department at most grocery stores)
1 egg white, lightly beaten
16 jumbo shrimp, raw, peeled with tails on
sunflower oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • To make the dip, finely chop the chili, then mix with the honey and soy and stir well: set aside.
  • To make the shrimp rolls, finely chop the cilantro and garlic and mix with the curry paste.
  • Brush each wonton wrapper with egg whites and place a small dab of the cilantro mixture in the center. Place a shrimp on top and fold over, enclosing the shrimp and leaving the tail exposed. Repeat with the other shrimp.
  • Heat the oil in a deep heavy bottomed pot or pan to 350 degrees F. Fry shrimp in small batches for 1-2 minutes (turning to prevent burning) each until are golden brown and crisp. Drain on paper towels.
  • Serve with the dip.
  • TIP -- If you prefer, use phyllo pastry in place of wonton wrappers, put the paste and a shrimp on one end, then brush with egg white and wrap the pastry around the shrimp to enclose and fry.
