Method

  1. 1 Boil the walnuts for 2 minutes, then drain and roll them in sugar.
  2. 2 Boiling the walnuts before coating them in sugar removes the bitterness from their thin skin.
  3. 3 Fry the sugar-coated walnuts at 150 degrees for 3 minutes, then spread them out on a tray to cool and become crispy.
  4. 4 Peel the shrimp, coat them in egg whites and cornstarch, then fry at 180 degrees for 90 seconds.
  5. 5 Mix mayonnaise with condensed milk and lemon juice to make a thick sauce.
  6. 6 Mix the shrimp with the sauce just before serving, then sprinkle with candied walnuts and arrange on top of shredded cabbage.

With an appliance

  • Air fryer 35 min

    Replace step 4: spray oil evenly, then heat in a pan at 200 degrees for 7 minutes; the walnuts are still sautéed in the pan.
