In two separate bowls mix together thoroughly sauce ingredients in one and slaw ingredients in the other bowl. Set aside until ready to assemble tacos.
In a mixing bowl, mix together batter ingredients which include flour, cornstarch, water, egg, hot sauce, and salt. Make sure there are no lumps in the batter. It will be about the consistency of a thin pancake batter.
Put the panko breadcrumbs in another bowl and put next to batter to set up breading station.
Heat up on medium enough oil in pot to fully submerge shrimp while frying. Bring to about 350°F to fry. While oil heats up start battering shrimp. Pick up from the tail and dip in batter completely, lift out and hold for a moment to let excess batter drip off then place in panko breadcrumbs. Coat in breadcrumbs on both sides, press with hands to make sure it is sticking properly. Coat a few pieces at a time then place in preheated oil.
Fry for about 1-2 minutes until lightly golden brown.
Take out of oil with metal slotted spoon to help drain excess oil. Place fried shrimp on paper towel lined plate.
Once shrimp is done warm up tortillas on a clean, non-stick pan. Just heat on medium for 30 seconds to 1 minute per side and then place each tortilla in a clean kitchen towel to keep warm while serving.
Now, you can assemble! Place tortilla, then slaw, then a few shrimp pieces, and top with sauce. You can garnish with cilantro if you want.
Enjoy!
