Bang Bang Sauce

Bang Bang Sauce is a mix of different Asian sauces, which create a wonderfully creamy, sweet, and spicy tang! The sauces I’ve used here are Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise, Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, Sriracha, and Honey. The combination of these sauces creates magic! You should easily find these sauces in your local Asian grocery stores. However, if you cannot find the Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise, you can substitute with the regular mayonnaise.

You can adjust the amount of Sriracha depending on how spicy you want your sauce to be. The addition of Honey adds a nice sweet taste to it.

WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THE BANG BANG SAUCE

Japansk Kewpie-mayonnaise – Kewpie has both the tangy-sweetness and the savory undertone that is absent in regular mayonnaise. It is packed with amazing egg umami flavor. You will have to taste it to find out.

Thai Sweet Chili Sauce – The sweet chili sauce is the perfect mix of savory, sweet, and spicy taste. You can use this for many different dishes to elevate the flavor.

Sriracha Sauce – This has become a popular spicy sauce worldwide. You should easily find this in most local grocery stores these days.

Honning – The use of honey adds additional sweetness to the flavor.

ANDRE INGREDIENSER

Prawns – Always use large prawns for satisfying bites. The shrimp should be peeled and deveined. I like to leave the tail shell on for a nice shape.

Salt & White Pepper – The classic combo of seasonings – simple and flavorful.

Buttermilk – If you do not have it, you can make it at home with Whole Milk and Lemon Juice. See my instruction below.

Vegetabilsk olie – I like to use Rapeseed Oil. You can use Sunflower Oil too. Do not use Olive OIl.

Majsstivelse – It is also called Cornflour. This is commonly used in Chinese cooking.

Grønne løg - eller kaldet forårsløg. Jeg kan godt lide at bruge dem som pynt til sidst. Det giver en smuk grøn farve, og det er rigt på sunde næringsstoffer.

HOW TO MAKE THIS BANG BANG SHRIMP

Mix the Shrimp with homemade buttermilk – In a large mixing bowl, add in the Whole Milk and freshly squeezed Lemon Juice. Let sit for 5 minutes. Homemade buttermilk is ready. Then add in the Shrimp, Salt, and White Pepper. Mix well and set aside.

Make the Bang Bang Sauce – In another large mixing bowl, mix together Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise, Thai Sweet Chili Sauce, Sriracha, and Honey. Set aside.

Smør rejerne ind i et lag – In a tray or bowl, add in the Cornstarch. Coat the Shrimp one at a time. Shake off extra starch.

Steg rejerne – In a wok, add in Vegetable Oil over medium heat. Use a wooden chopstick to check the temperature oil (180 C or 350 F). If you see small bubbles coming up, the oil is ready. Add the Shrimp one at a time into the hot oil. Fry them in batches. Do not crow d the pan. Fry for 3-4 minutes until both sides are golden and cooked through. Drain on paper towels.

Samle retten – Place the fried Shrimp into the bowl of Bang Bang Sauce. Toss everything well until the Shrimp are evenly coated.

Klar til at nyde – Transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with some chopped Green Onions on top. Serve immediately!

Hainis tips

– You should always use large Shrimp for satisfying bites. I like to leave the tail shell on for a nice shape.
– For the buttermilk, you can normally buy it from the store if you are in the U.S. However, it is hard to find buttermilk here in Denmark. You can easily make this at home with simple ingredients.
– If you can find the Japanese Kewpie Mayonnaise, I highly recommend you to use it. It just tastes so much better compared to the regular mayonnaise. But you can substitute this with the regular mayonnaise if Kewpie Mayonnaise is not an option for you.
– You can adjust the amount of Sriracha Sauce depending on how much spiciness that you want.
