1/2 cup creamy peanut butter

2 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce

3 tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed

2 cloves garlic, finely minced

2/3 cup plus 1/4 cup water

1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

3 green onions, thinly sliced

2 large eggs

2 pound medium shrimp, shelled

1 cup flour

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Paper or plastic bag

Vegetable oil for deep-frying

1. In a small saucepan combine the peanut butter, soy sauce, lemon juice, brown sugar, garlic, 2/3 cup water, and cayenne. Bring mixture just to a boil, whisking until it is smooth. Stir in the green onions. Set aside and keep warm.
2. Mix the flour, salt and pepper in bag. Set aside.
3. In a bowl whisk together the eggs and remaining 1/4 cup water. Add shrimp to egg mixture, stirring to coat well. Remove and place shrimp in flour mixture, seal bag tightly and shake to coat evenly.
4. In a deep fryer or Dutch oven, heat the oil to 325*F (160*C). Fry the shrimp in small batches for about 2 minutes or until browned. Drain on paper towels.
5. Serve fried shrimp with the peanut sauce.
