* Add fried shrimp and candied walnuts to the mayo mixture and toss gently. Serve immediately over steamed rice.
* OPTIONAL: Add 25%-50% more sauce ingredients if you want things a bit juicier.

Yummmmmmmmmmmmmm 😊
bro just trolling his ol man haha
???????what's 合桃??????
Delicious. Like the ending, I'll be buying the book.
Thanks for the killer recipe!
I had a variation of this dish, Gran Marnier shrimp. Tasted similar to this except chef added orange flavor. Couldn’t quite discern if it was Gran marnier liquor and or some orange zest added to mayo sauce
What do you do with the leftover oil in the wok?
Made it today, so good!!!
Thank God for supermarkets during a busy work week 🙂
I just made this and followed the recipe exactly and the one from Trader Joe’s (that you can buy) is better than this.
Kevin’s mannerisms is akin to Chris Kimball’s
I had this dish for the first time at Fung’s Kitchen here in Houston at my nephew’s graduation. It was so good! I can’t wait to give this recipe a try because I know it will be even better.😊
Definitely try this recipe honey walnut shrimp 🍤 is my favorite 😍 🤤
😋😋😋
"Is it the first time I called you honey" 😂😂😂 true Chinese parents!
Love these two; so much fun to watch with great ideas for dishes to make at home!
I have been looking for the sauce to make what I call coconut shrimp even though it's honey walnut shrimp forever so I will be making this
My favorite?? Honey Walnut Shrimp! Don’t have the right Mayo or the Shaoxing wine but I’m gonna do my best!
Such a cute family. I will attempt this recipe….We shall see. LOL
😂 love the chemistry between them
First time watching! Love your voice Kevin! Very clear and easy to listen to. And your parents are awesome! Can’t wait to make this!
I love their dad son relationship 🙂 and the shrimp looks pretty darn good too. might have to try these.
My favorite dish is Shrimp and Snow Peas in brown sauce with white rice. WOW. I eat it at least 2× a week. I love it so much. It's been my go to meal for at least 9 years now. I've started growing Mammoth Snow Peas so I get the biggest softest edible pea pods. Wish I had access to large shrimp. But here in the Midwest that's hard to find fresh.
One of my favorite 🤩
Great recipe! Please, another season!
This is my first time seeing these guys. I really like Kevin. He’s a great presenter.
Love this series 👍 Father and son combo is so great
