Preparation
-
Pickled Vegetables:
- To make the pickling liquid, combine the sugar and water in a saucepan. Add the bay leaves and crushed pepper. Bring to a boil and turn it down to simmer for 5-10 minutes.
- Set aside the liquid to cool. When it’s completely cool, add the sliced cucumber and radishes. Set aside in the chiller until ready to use.
-
Mango Salsa:
- To make the salsa, dilute Knorr Lime Seasoning in 15ml of water then combine all of the ingredients together in a bowl. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside in the chiller until ready to use.
-
Dynamite Sauce:
- To make the dynamite sauce, dilute Knorr Lime Seasoning in 15ml of water then combine all the ingredients in a bowl. Whisk together to combine. Taste and adjust seasoning. Set aside in the chiller until ready to use.
-
Shrimp:
- Season the shrimp with Knorr Aromat and pepper.
- Whisk together the ingredients for the batter in a bowl.
-
Batter:
- Combine the ingredients for the breading in a separate bowl.
-
Breading:
- To prepare the shrimp for deep-frying, lightly coat the shrimp in the dry breading, then dip in the batter, then return to the dry breading. Add the breaded shrimp to the hot oil to deep-fry.
- Cook the shrimp until crisp and golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
- When the shrimps are all done, toss them with the dynamite sauce.
- To assemble the taco, lightly heat each tortilla over a dry pan.
- Spread at least a teaspoon of dynamite sauce in the center of the tortilla. Layer with a thick layer of shredded cabbage.
- Arrange a few slices of pickled cucumber and radish on top, followed by 2 pieces of dynamite shrimp.
- Finish off with a spoon full of mango salsa. Serve immediately.

Chef Tips:
- Shrimp can be swapped with fish or chicken strips. Fried thinly sliced cauliflower and mushrooms can be used as vegetarian substitutes.
- Shrimp can be grilled or pan-fried with no batter or breading, to lower down the calories.
