Crispy Won Ton Wrapped Shrimp Recipes

FRIED SHRIMP WONTONS

Steps:

• Cut 2/3 of the shrimp into small pieces. Mince the remaining 1/3 of the shrimp into ground shrimp. Combine the shrimp with all the Seasoning ingredients together. Stir to mix well.
• Assemble the shrimp wontons by placing a piece of the wonton wrapper on a flat surface. Spoon about 1 tablespoon of the shrimp filling on the middle of the wrapper. Do not overfill.
• Fold to form a tri-angle shape. Using the thumbs and index fingers of both hands, press and squeeze both sides of the wonton towards to the center to form the folds. Make sure the wontons are sealed tightly. Place the wrapped wontons on a floured surface or baking sheet.
• Heat 2 to 3 inches of the oil in a wok or small stockpot to 350°F (176°C) for deep-frying. Gently drop the shrimp wontons into the oil and deep-fry in batches until they turn golden brown. Dish out with a strainer or slotted spoon, draining the excess oil with paper towels. Serve warm with the mayonnaise.

• Starting at the top of each shrimp, wrap 6 to 8 strands of noodles around the shrimp until reaching the tail (do not wrap the noodles too tightly). Tuck in any loose ends.
• Add enough oil to fill a small saucepot halfway. Heat the oil over medium-high heat to 350 to 375 degrees F. Gently lower the shrimp into the oil with a slotted spoon. Fry in batches until the noodles are crispy and light golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Drain the shrimp on a paper towel or cooling rack.

WONTON WRAPPED SHRIMP

Steps:

• Place shrimp in a bowl and add the garlic, coriander, fish or soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and chili.
• Toss well and set aside to marinate 10 minutes (or up to 30). Meanwhile, prepare your pan or wok for frying. A wok requires oil. Pour oil about 1 inch deep.
• Toss the shrimp once again before wrapping. To wrap, lay out the first wonton wrapper on the diagonal (point facing towards you). Brush the entire surface with beaten egg, then position the shrimp horizontally across the center (with its tail sticking out past the left corner). Fold the right corner over the bottom of the shrimp, then bring up the bottom and tuck over. Roll quite tightly to finish and press firmly to seal.
• Place wrapped shrimp on a plate lightly dusted with cornstartch (to keep wrappers from sticking).
• Heat oil over medium-high heat. To test if oil is hot enough, dip one of the wrapped shrimp in - if it starts to sizzle and cook, the oil is ready. Fry the wrapped shrimp about 1 minute per side or until light golden brown and crunchy. Once your first batch is frying, reduce heat to medium. Drain on paper towels.
• Serve immediately either as or with Thai sweet chili sauce for dipping. This appetizer can be kept in a warm oven (uncovered) for up to 1 hour.

STICKY CRISPY ORANGE SHRIMP

Steps:

• For the sauce: Put the orange juice, ginger, honey, soy sauce, cornstarch, crushed red pepper, vinegar, sesame oil, salt and garlic in a small nonstick skillet over medium heat and whisk thoroughly to incorporate the cornstarch into the liquid. If you have a few lumps remaining, that is fine. Heat until bubbling and starting to thicken, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• For the crispy shrimp: Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium heat to 350 degrees F.
• Add the flour, salt and pepper to a shallow dish. Crack the eggs into a second shallow dish and beat well. Place the panko in a third dish. Bread the shrimp by dipping them first in the flour mixture and shaking off any excess, then in the egg and finally in the breadcrumbs, pressing to make sure each shrimp has an even coating.
• Fry the shrimp in 2 batches, flipping halfway through, until golden, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Drain on a paper towel-lined plate.
• Before serving, add the sauce to the bottom of a bowl. Add the shrimp and toss gently to coat. Serve over rice and garnish with the sliced scallions.
