Categories     Hawaiian

Time 4m

Yield 3-4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

1/2 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons sriracha sauce (really it is up to you, I like mine hotter)
1 teaspoon paprika
20 fried shrimp (the frozen shrimp that come already battered are perfect)

Steps:

  • You can be authentic and use "real" Japanese Mayonnaise (Kewpie), but good old Hellman's works fine too.The Sriracha hot sauce is the secret ingredient (the one with the rooster on the bottle!).
  • Mix Sriracha with mayo and paprika. Set aside. Deep fry your shrimp and simply toss the volcano sauce in a mixing bowl with the shrimp.
