Title: SHRIMP CANTONESE (AKA SHRIMP IN LOBSTER SAUCE
Categories: Chinese, Seafood, Shellfish, Loo
Yield: 4 servings
1 lb Shrimp, shelled, tailed,
-deveined, rinsed, and
-towel dried
1 Egg white beaten with
1 ts Cornstarch
3 tb Vegetable oil
8 oz Ground pork
4 ts Salted black beans
2 tb Garlic, minced
1 ts Fresh ginger, minced fine
2 Scallions, minced
5 ts Soy sauce
2 tb Dry sherry or rice wine
1/4 ts Sugar
1/2 c Chicken broth
1 tb Cornstarch dissolved in
2 tb Cold chicken broth
1 Egg beaten with
2 ts Sesame oil
Beat egg white with cornstarch. Add shrimp, mix well,
and refrigerate for at least 15 min or up to an hour.
Stir-fry in 3 T oil just until done. Remove to a
warming oven with a slotted spoon.
In the same oil (if it's not too yucky) brown the
pork. Add next 8 ingredients. Bring to a boil and add
cornstarch-water. Return to the boil and cook until
thickened. Remove pan from heat and stir in the egg;
fuss with the mixture so the egg becomes thin
filaments rather than a big glob in the middle of the
pan. Stir in the cooked shrimp and toss with the
sauce. Serve immediately.
You may substitute 1 1-1/2# steamed, cut-up lobster
for the shrimp to make Lobster Cantonese (or Lobster
in lobster sauce). This will serve 2-3.
