Ingredients
Steps
-
Prepare ingredients: celery: 500g, cashew nuts: appropriate amount, shrimp: 16 shrimps, salt: appropriate amount, starch: appropriate amount, oil: appropriate amount
-
Wash the celery, remove the thickest tendons to make it more tender, and cut it into wide slices with a diagonal knife. Remove the grit and wash the shrimps, then marinate them with cooking wine and a little salt.
-
Fried cashews. Pour a little oil into the pot, not too much. Because the color of the oil after frying cashews will become darker, it will affect the color of the dishes when used to fry light-colored dishes. If you have a lot of oil left after frying cashews, you don’t need to throw it away. You can fry darker-colored dishes.
-
Heat oil in a pan and add cashew nuts. Fry over medium-low heat.
-
Keep turning the cashews to ensure even heating. Never use too much firepower, otherwise the cashews will be easily fried black. When the cashews are a little lighter in color than we want, stop firing. Remove the cashew nuts to control oil and let cool until set aside.
-
Return to the pot and blanch the celery. After the water boils, add the celery. When you smell the fragrance of the celery, turn off the heat immediately. Remove and cool, drain and set aside.
-
Pour appropriate amount of oil into the pot and heat it. At this time, dip the marinated shrimps in a layer of dry starch, just a thin layer, not too thick. After the oil is hot, fry the shrimps. When the shrimps are rolled, take them out and set aside.
-
Add base oil to the pot. After the oil is hot, add the celery and stir-fry. Because it has been blanched before, the frying time does not need to be too long.
-
Pour in the shrimp, add salt, stir-fry evenly, and add an appropriate amount of water starch to thicken.
-
After the gravy is evenly distributed, turn off the heat. At this time, pour in the cashews, stir evenly and serve on a plate.
-
The color is attractive, and one look at it will whet your appetite.
-
Rich taste: crisp celery, crispy cashews, and salty shrimps.
-
It has a light taste and is rich in various nutrients.
-
Celery has the effects of lowering blood pressure, sedating, strengthening the stomach, and being a diuretic. It is a health-care vegetable.
