- Cooking tips:
- For an even crispier shrimp, ensure the oil is at the correct temperature before frying.
- To save time, prep the cabbage, tomatoes, and pickles while the oil is heating.
- If you prefer a spicier mayo, increase the amount of jalapeños or add sriracha directly to the mayo mixture.
- Toasting the bread helps to prevent it from becoming soggy once the sandwich is assembled.
