Preparation
  Mix batter ingredients in a medium-sized bowl until thick and smooth. Let the batter sit, covered, for at least 30 minutes. Combine shrimp and batter. Heat a wok or large deep skillet until hot and add the oil for frying. When the oil is barely smoking, deep-fry the shrimp for 2 minutes or until the batter
is just firm. You should do this in several batches. Remove shrimp with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Heat a small saucepan and when hot, add the oil, dried chiles and garlic. Stir for 30 seconds. Add remaining sauce ingredients and simmer for 2 minutes. Keep warm. Reheat the oil in the wok until it is very
hot, but not smoking. Deep-fry the shrimp again until they are golden and crisp, about 2 minutes. Remove and drain, place on a warm platter, drizzle with the sauce and serve immediately.
