This is a favorite Chinese-American dish that you will just want to keep in your mouth all day like a piece of hard candy.

It is an ideal side dish to go along with any main course. The recipe is simple, and preparation and cooking time is kept to about 30 minutes. The serving size in this version is for 2 people.

1. Put about 20 shrimp in a bowl and cover with room temperature water. Add a teaspoon of salt.
2. Let the bowl sit for about 20 minutes. We come back to the shrimp later.
3. Take 1/2 a cup of walnuts and put them in an air fryer or oven at 300 degrees for three minutes. Feel free to toast them longer for more crispiness.
4. Once done, place the walnuts in a medium sized bowl to let cool.
5. Boil a tablespoon of water and let sit after.
6. Crack two eggs into a medium sized bowl.
7. Separate and place the egg yolks in another bowl. We only need the egg whites for this dish. Feel free to save the egg yolks for a desert recipe!
8. Add 1/2 cup of glutinous rice flour to the bowl of eggs whites.
9. Stir the mixture until blended. This is the coating. If it is too dry, then add some hot water. The mixture should have a thick consistency like barbecue sauce.
10. Check on the shrimp to see if it is soft.
11. De-shell and de-vein the shrimp. Discard the shells and entrails.
12. Place the shrimp in the coating bowl and stir until coated.
13. Heat up the air fryer or oven to 300 degrees F.
14. Place the shrimp in the air fryer or oven and let cook for ten minutes or until golden brown.
15. Take the shrimp out and place on a dish to let cool.
16. Put 1/3 cup of mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons of honey, the boiled water, and 1 tablespoon of full milk in a medium sized bowl.
17. Add the walnuts to the bowl.
18. Stir until blended. This is the sauce.
19. Lather each shrimp with the sauce.
20. Serve with broccoli or other vegetable.
