    Meanwhile, to make the satay sauce, heat oil in a wok or frying pan over medium heat. Cook onion until transparent. Add curry powder and cook for 1 min. Add satay sauce, soy sauce, sherry and sugar. Cook for 2 mins, stirring constantly. Add cream and stir until combined. Bring to a boil then reduce heat and simmer for 2 mins, or until slightly thickened. Distribute between 4 serving bowls.
    To deep fry shrimp, heat oil to 350\u00b0F. Working in batches, carefully deep-fry shrimp until golden brown and cooked through, around 2 mins. Drain on paper towels. Serve with satay sauce.
