  • Stir with a spoon until all the ingredients are well integrated, and the sauce looks homogeneous. 
    Air Fryer Bang Bang Shrimp Step-02
  • Place the wheat flour on a flat plate and add a pinch of salt. Repeat this procedure with the breadcrumbs, place it on another flat plate, and sprinkle a little salt. Crack the egg into a bowl, and stir it. To properly bread the shrimp, you must first pass them through the wheat flour, then through the beaten egg, and finally through the breadcrumbs. Make sure they are perfectly covered with bread crumbs.

  • Place the breaded shrimp in the basket of your air fryer. Try to leave a little space between each one so that they brown evenly.
    Air Fryer Bang Bang Shrimp Step-04
  • Cook the shrimp in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 400°C. Open the Air Fryer, if you think the shrimp should be more golden, cook them for two more minutes. This should be more than enough. Avoid overcooking the shrimp. If you find that the shrimp look a bit dry, don't worry. Sriracha aioli will fix this.

  • Separate a third of the sriracha aioli and place it in a separate bowl. Place the cooked shrimp in the rest of the sauce and stir until well coated with sauce.
