Recipe 🍳

  1. Dice bell pepper, onion, carrot, and pineapple into 0.5 cm cubes.
  2. Clean the shrimp thoroughly and make deep slits along the back to help them maintain a round, plump shape when fried.
  3. In a bowl, mix flour with a little water, then gradually add egg liquid to create a smooth frying batter.
  4. Coat the cleaned shrimp evenly with the batter.
  5. Mix mayonnaise and sugar in roughly a 1:1 ratio, then add lemon juice, salt, vinegar, and wasabi to taste to make the wasabi mayo sauce.
  6. Fry the shrimp in preheated oil until crispy, then remove and drain off excess oil.
  7. Add the prepared sauce and diced vegetables to a pan and gently toss together before turning off the heat.
  8. Add the fried shrimp to the pan and quickly toss using residual heat until the sauce evenly coats the shrimp.
  9. Place clean lettuce on a plate, then top with the tossed shrimp to finish.
  1. Chop the vegetables and pineapple finely.
  2. Prepare shrimp by making slits on the back and coat them with flour and egg batter.
  3. Mix mayonnaise, sugar, lemon juice, and wasabi to prepare the sauce.
  4. Fry the shrimp until crisp.
  5. Toss the sauce, vegetables, and fried shrimp together quickly over residual heat to finish.

Cooking tips 💡

  • Making deep cuts along the shrimp’s back helps them stay round and full when fried.
  • Always mix the sauce with residual heat after turning off the stove—this prevents separation and maintains crispness.
  • For a more tangy flavor, add a small amount of vinegar in addition to lemon juice.
