Prep

Step 1. Bring Jasmine Rice, most of the Water and half the Salt to a boil in a saucepan. Cover and simmer over low heat until the water is absorbed, about 15 minutes. Take off the heat and let stand, covered, until tender, about 10 minutes.
Step 2. Meanwhile, bring White Sugar and the rest of the Water to a simmer in a small skillet over medium heat. Add Walnuts and stir until coated and the syrup is nearly gone, about 3 minutes. Spread on parchment to cool.
Step 3. Heat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Stir Mayonnaise, Honey and Rice Vinegar together in a large bowl.
Step 4. Toss Shrimp with the rest of the Salt, then coat evenly with Cornstarch. Shake off any excess, toss with Vegetable Oil and spread in a single layer on a parchment-lined sheet pan.

Cook

Step 5. Bake the shrimp, turning once, until the coating is crisp and the shrimp are opaque throughout, about 10 minutes.

Finish & serve

Step 6. Toss the hot shrimp briefly in the sauce. Fluff the rice and divide among bowls; add the shrimp and scatter the cooled walnuts over the top.

Tips

Good to know

Toss the shrimp in the sauce just before serving to keep the coating crisp.

Swap it

For a walnut allergy, omit the walnuts and skip the candying step.
