- Process the shrimp in a food processor until the texture of ground beef (not a paste), transfer to a mixing bowl.
- Pan fry the ground pork until it just changes color, add the hoisin sauce and stir to combine.
- Add the pork mixture to the shrimp and stir to combine.
- In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
- Add the onions, celery, green peppers, salt and cayenne.
- Cook, stirring, until soft (about 6 minutes).

- Put the remaining beaten eggs in yet another bowl, add the water and beat slightly to combine.
- Heat the oil in a deep skillet to about 350 degrees.
- Carefully (as so not to lose the filling), dredge the stuffed caps in the flour first, then the egg, and finally the panko making sure to fully coat them.
- Carefully again place the caps 4 at a tie into the skillet and fry for about 6 minutes per side, or until golden and cooked through.
