How to cook deliciously - Happy Shrimp Stir Fry

1. Stage

Toss shrimp with cornstarch: Pat the shrimp very dry and place them in a bowl. Toss with the cornstarch.

2. Stage

Fry in hot pan 1 minute each side: Heat a wok or large frying pan on high heat until a bead of water instantly sizzles and evaporates upon contact. Add the cooking oil and swirl to coat. Add the cornstarch coated shrimp to the wok and spread out in one layer. Let fry untouched for 1 minute. Flip and fry other side for another minute. Remove the shrimp from the frying pan, keeping as much oil in the pan as possible.

3. Stage

Fry garlic and ginger: Return the pan to the stove. Add an additional teaspoon of cooking oil to the pan if needed. When the pan is hot, turn the heat to medium and add the garlic and the ginger and fry for 15-30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Stage

Add sauce and shrimp: Pour in the sauce mixture and bring to boil. Add the cooked shrimp back into the wok and let simmer for an additional minute until the shrimp are cooked through. Serve on bed of shredded lettuce and top with garnish of sliced green onions.
