Ingredients

What you'll need

  • 1 lb salt and pepper shrimp
  • 1 medium soy sauce
  • 1 lb garlic
  • a pinch fresh ginger
  • 4 oz scallions
  • 1/4 cup toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tbsp Shaoxing wine
  • to taste good finishing oil
Method

Step by step

  1. Pat the salt and pepper shrimp dry and season it well so it browns instead of steaming.
  2. Get your pan hot and render the aromatics until they smell sweet and toasty.
  3. Return the salt and pepper shrimp, add just enough liquid, and simmer until everything is tender.
  4. Taste, brighten with a squeeze of citrus, and plate while it is still hot.
Keep cooking
