Step 1
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, Thai sweet chili sauce, Sriracha, and honey. Mix well and set aside.
Step 2
In a second bowl, add the shrimp. Pour the buttermilk over the shrimp, making sure to coat each one.
Step 3
In a third small bowl, add cornstarch.
Step 4
In a large, heavy-bottom pot, add 1 inch of canola oil. Heat over medium heat until a candy thermometer reads 375°F.
Step 5
Working in batches, remove the shrimp from the buttermilk, allowing excess buttermilk to drip off. Next, coat the shrimp in cornstarch.
Step 6
Place the coated shrimp into the hot oil and fry for 1-2 minutes, or until lightly golden brown on each side. Continue with the remaining shrimp. (Please note: You may have to let the oil heat up to 375°F again after each batch of fried shrimp.)
Step 7
While hot, coat the fried shrimp with the sauce and serve immediately.
