Oh my goodness, ladies and gents, let me tell you about this absolutely divine Chinese recipe that’s been making waves in my kitchen! As someone who’s always looking for that perfect afternoon pick-me-up, I stumbled upon this heavenly Honey Walnut Shrimp that’s seriously to die for. Trust me, your taste buds will thank you later! 💁♀️
This dish is like a warm hug from your favorite auntie – sweet, comforting, and totally worth the effort. I’ve perfected this recipe after countless attempts (and yes, a few memorable kitchen disasters), but now I’m ready to share my secrets with you!
Here’s what you’ll need (serves 4):
– 1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
– 1 cup walnuts
– 1/2 cup mayonnaise
– 3 tablespoons honey
– 1 tablespoon sweetened condensed milk
– 2 egg whites
– 1/2 cup cornstarch
– Oil for frying
– A pinch of salt
First things first, let’s candify those walnuts (yes, I totally made up that word, but you get me! 😉). Bring water to a boil, add walnuts for 2 minutes, drain and toss in sugar. Fry them in oil until golden – watch them like a hawk because they burn faster than gossip spreads!

Now for the star of the show – the shrimp! Coat them in egg whites, then cornstarch. Fry until they’re golden and crispy (about 3-4 minutes). Pro tip: don’t overcrowd the pan, these babies need their space to shine!
For the sauce (this is where the magic happens), whisk together mayonnaise, honey, and condensed milk until smooth. It should be thick enough to coat the back of a spoon – think luxury spa face mask consistency!
Toss those crispy shrimp in the sauce, sprinkle with your candied walnuts, and voilà! Serve it hot, and watch your family fight over the last piece (been there, done that! 🤭).
Y’all, I cannot stress enough how this dish turns an ordinary afternoon into something special. It’s perfect for those days when you want to feel fancy without spending hours in the kitchen – because let’s be real, we’ve got other things to do!
