Ingredients

Steps

  1. Prepare the fresh shrimps, peel the shrimps and remove the shrimp strings, then cut them into large dices, add a little cooking wine, oyster sauce or light soy sauce, starch and other seasonings you like and marinate for a few minutes. If you don’t like cooking wine, oyster sauce, you don’t need to add cooking wine or oyster sauce, you can also add light soy sauce. You must add a little starch to make the shrimps taste tender and delicious

  8. Now comes the cooking. You can choose the vegetables you like and just stir-fry them. Here I made a stir-fried shrimp and corn kernels. Heat the oil in a pan. Add a little peppercorns, shredded ginger, and chili peppers and quickly fry them. Then take them out and leave the oil for later use

  10. Pour in corn kernels, green bean kernels, and diced carrots and stir-fry for a while. Because the ingredients are cooked, there is no need to stir-fry for too long. Just add salt and chicken essence to season when it is almost out of the pan. Because the shrimp itself is a fresh ingredient, I did not add chicken essence
