1 cup mayonnaise

1/4 cup sugar

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 1/2 teaspoons lemon juice

3 1/2 ounces sweetened condensed milk

Walnuts:

1/2 pound raw, shelled walnuts

2 cups water

1 cup honey

8 ounces rock sugar (see note in instructions)

Vegetable oil for deep frying

Shrimp:

8 ounces tiger shrimp, peeled and deveined

Cornstarch

Vegetable oil for deep frying

1 cup shredded carrots

Toasted sesame seeds, garnish

Cilantro stems, garnish

Directions

Make sauce by whisking the sauce ingredients together until smooth.

For the walnuts, combine the walnuts, water, honey and rock sugar (see note above) in a saucepan and simmer until the walnuts are soft.

Remove from heat and drain walnuts in a colander.

Pat walnuts dry with a towel.

Deep-fry the walnuts at 350 degrees until crispy and golden brown.

Cool to room temperature before use.

Cook the shrimp until it is opaque, no longer translucent.

Dredge the shrimp in cornstarch and deep-fry in 350- degree oil until lightly golden brown.

In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked shrimp and the sauce until thoroughly coated.

Arrange a bed of shredded carrots on each plate and place shrimp on top.

Top with walnuts, sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds and garnish with cilantro stems.

-Note: This recipe calls for rock sugar. You can use rock candy, which can be purchased at many candy stores

I could just KISS you! I love this dish at a local favorite Asian restaurant (Yu's in Schaumburg, IL - try it if you're in the area!). I have to try to create this at home - the flavor is to DIE FOR! Thanks, midgelet...Krum
