1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup sweet chili sauce
4 kaffir lime leaves torn

1
For the chilli syrup, combine all ingredients and 1/2 cup water in a small saucepan on medium heat. Stir for 1-2 mins, or until sugar dissolves. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low; simmer, uncovered, for 5 mins, or until sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat. Let stand for 15 mins, then discard lime leaves.

Combine breadcrumbs, pepper, seasoning and salt in a medium bowl. Holding shrimp by the tail, dip one at a time into egg white, then coat in crumb mixture.

Fill a large saucepan or deep-fryer one-third full with oil. Heat to 350u00b0F, or until a cube of bread turns golden in 10 seconds. Deep-fry shrimp, in batches, for about 1 min, or until cooked through and crisp. Drain on paper towels.

Sprinkle shrimp with chili pepper and cilantro leaves. Serve with sweet chili syrup for dipping.
