Instructions:

1. Fry egg roll wrapper strips in 1-inch peanut oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat to make wonton strips. Cook the strips in batches until they are light brown and crisp, about 1 minute. Transfer wonton strips to a paper towel-lined plate and season with salt; fry remaining strips. Pour off all but three tablespoons of oil. 2. Combine garlic, sesame seeds, 1 tsp salt, pepper, and pepper flakes in a dish. 3. Rinse and then dry the shrimp well. Toss the shrimp with cornstarch and let them stand for a while. Stir-fry shrimp in the three tablespoons of oil in the skillet over medium-high heat 2-3 minutes per side. Stir garlic mixture into shrimp and cook 1 minute. 4. Add mango juice and lime juice; bring to a simmer. Stir in the mango and scallions, cooking just until the mango is warmed through. To serve, divide wonton strips between four plates; top each with mango mixture and 5 shrimp. |
