Made up a batch of these on Saturday night. I didn't care for the corn starch coating (it was ok but not my thing) the sauce I thought was awsome. We took some steak rolls and made a shrim poor boy with them and used the sauceas a mayo. Also thought the sauce was very good eating them on lettuce. All and all people at my house loved them. Thanks again.

THIS WAS AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!

THANKS SO MUCH!!!!!

The corn starch breading was LIFE CHANGING. It stayed crispy FOREVER!!!!! Even drenched in yummy sauce.

This is one of those recipes I have tasted, and had NO clue how to replicate. Doesn't happen to me much.

IT WAS A HIT!!!

I made my own sweet thai chili sauce (just google) EASY TO MAKE.

glad you enjoyed.

shrimped battered corn strach on their own isnt anything great.

gotta make sure they get a good frying coat, than fry good on both sides, than coat them in the sauce

Agreed, but perfect for sauce.

We did some more 2 nights ago in a spicy stir fry instyead of the mayo/thai.

They stayed crispy, and the corn starch thickened the sauce. Little crispy bits all soaked in sauce were here and there. AWESOME!

And actually, they were yummy plain (breaded in CS no sauce). I had to stop SWMBO and my kids from scarfing them all.
