π Recipe adapted from AllRecipes
Mix egg white and salt together in a bowl; add shrimp and toss to coat evenly.
Cover and let shrimp marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
Bring water to a boil in a small saucepan.
Add sugar; cook until dissolved, about 1 minute.
Turn heat down to medium-low.
Cook, stirring occasionally, until syrup thickens and turns into a dark caramel color, 4 to 7 minutes.
Line a baking sheet.
Pour walnuts onto the baking sheet, spacing the pieces apart.
Mix mayonnaise, honey, condensed milk, and lemon juice together in a small bowl for the dressing.
Drain excess liquid from the shrimp.
Place cornstarch in a plastic sandwich bag.
Toss shrimp in the cornstarch in batches.
Heat 2 to 3 inches of oil in a medium to large pot to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Drop shrimp carefully into the hot oil in batches; fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes per batch.
Drain on paper towels to preserve crispiness.
Serve shrimp with the walnuts and honey dressing.
