Crispy Shrimp Bao Buns

1. Cut the green onions into long sections, then slice lengthwise very thinly. Place in a bowl of cold water to make green onion curls. On a separate cutting board, take the tail off the shrimps and cut them into 2 or 3 pieces.

2. In a bowl, mix the pieces of shrimp with the cornstarch, season with salt and pepper.

3. In a deep pan, add a generous drizzle of vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, cook the shrimps, only a few at a time, 2-3 minutes. Remove and place on paper towels.

4. In a steamer, cook the bao buns for 3-4 minutes or until warm and soft. If you don’t have a steamer, put them in a strainer over a pot of boiling water and cover. The buns should not touch the water. Put parchment paper so that the buns don’t stick.

5. In a bowl, combine the spicy mayonnaise with the honey.

6. Serve the crispy shrimp in the steamed buns. Garnish with the sauce, the green onions and the sesame seeds. Bon appétit!
