Ingredients

  • 1 pound raw jumbo shrimp, peeled and deveined
  • 1/2 cup cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons curry powder
  • 1 1/2 cups flaked, sweetened coconut
  • 2 egg whites, beaten until foamy
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/2 cup thawed frozen mango chunks
  • 2 tablespoons fresh cilantro leaves
  • 1 tablespoon honey
  • Small pinch of curry powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fresh lime juice

Method

  • Preheat oven to 400 degrees and generously coat a baking sheet with olive oil or regular oil spray.
  • Rinse and dry shrimp. Mix cornstarch, salt and curry powder in a shallow bowl. Place coconut flakes in a separate bowl. Working one at a time, dredge shrimp in the cornstarch mixture, dip it into egg whites, then roll in coconut, being sure to coat well. Place on baking sheet.
  • Bake in preheated oven 15 to 20 minutes, until shrimp are bright pink on the outside and coconut is browned, flipping shrimp halfway through. Serve with the dipping sauce.
  • To make dipping sauce: Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until smooth. Store in refrigerator.
