How to Make Jumbo Thai Stuffed Shrimp

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1/2 cup peanut butter, 1/4 cup tamari sauce, 2 tablespoons honey, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes, 2 green onions (finely chopped), 1/4 cup chopped cilantro, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, and 1 cup cooked ground pork.
  2. Heat 2 tablespoons sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Add the pork mixture to the skillet and cook, stirring constantly, for about 3-5 minutes, or until the pork is heated through and the sauce has thickened slightly.
  4. In a separate bowl, gently toss 1/2 cup cooked angel hair pasta with the pork mixture. Set aside to cool slightly.
  5. Butterfly the shrimp by cutting a slit lengthwise down the back, almost all the way through. Gently fill each shrimp with about 1 tablespoon of the pork and pasta mixture.
  6. Take one egg roll wrapper and fold it in half to form a triangle.
  7. Place a stuffed shrimp on the folded edge, with the tail extending past the fold (this will serve as a handle).
  8. Fold the top of the wrapper tightly over the shrimp.
  9. Fold the right side over the shrimp, tucking it in tightly.
  10. Beat 1 egg in a small bowl.
  11. Brush the remaining edge of the wrapper with a little beaten egg to seal it. Fold the edge over to the right and press firmly to seal.
  12. Repeat steps 6-11 until all shrimp and wrappers are used.
  13. Carefully place the stuffed shrimp in a preheated deep fryer or pot of oil (350°F/175°C) and fry for 3-4 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy. (Alternatively, bake at 400°F (200°C) for 15-20 minutes on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper).
  14. Serve immediately with a side of wasabi sauce (optional) and enjoy!
