    @TheVittleVlog The pastry I used was challenging to separate one sheet from
    the other … rather sticky cutting also. When tightly wrapped and sealed
    with water/corn starch and fried for about 4-5 minutes the pastry didn’t
    cook too quickly just came out beautiful golden brown. Shrimp cooked
    perfectly, hot with the spicy sauce most excellent!

    @jilijub In some cultures I think they eat the tail and sometimes the
    entire shell which I find to be disgusting. The tail is left on so you have
    something to hold on to and by pulling just properly you can get the meat
    out of the tail too.

    @lyndamean I think it will work lightly buttered on parchment paper. You
    may need to flip half way. Let me know and thanks for watching.

    @POFOLDIN Yes this is a great appetizer. Sweet and Sour sauce can be found
    in most markets in the Asian section. You could also make your own by
    mixing some fruit juice, honey, and a little cider vinegar. Thanks for
    watching.
