• 1 Pizza Pan (7-piece Bakeware Set)
• 12-inch Gourmet Skillet

Ingredients:

• ½ cup mango, diced
• ½ cup ketchup

• 3 eggs
• 1 teaspoon salt

• 2 cups ground pistachios
• 2 cups coconut flakes

Procedure:

With the Santoku Knife, peel, de-seed and dice the mango. In the 1-quart Mixing Bowl, combine the ketchup, mango, and horseradish; mix well and set aside.

In the 2-quart Mixing Bowl, crack the eggs and mix well. In one of the Pie Plates, add the salt and flour; mix well. In the other Pie Plate, add ground pistachios and coconut flakes; mix well.

Take each shrimp and fully coat it with flour; shake off the extra. Then, place the shrimp in the beaten eggs; making sure is fully covered. Finally, roll the shrimp in the pistachio and coconut mixture; make sure is fully coated. Place shrimps on the Pizza Pan.

Preheat the 12-inch Gourmet Skillet at medium heat for 2 minutes; pour oil and continue heating for about 6 minutes. Deep-fry about 6 shrimps at a time to not over fill the skillet. Cook shrimps on each side for 4 minutes or until golden brown. Place shrimps on paper towel, to soak extra oil. Serve with mango cocktail sauce.
