In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Thai chili sauce and sriracha until blended.

Fill a wok with 2-3 inches of canola oil and preheat to 375°F. Then, drain the shrimp from the buttermilk and toss with the cornstarch in a large bowl until evenly coated.

Transfer the shrimp to a bowl and toss with the sauce while still hot until coated on all sides.
