Chinese Hot Pepper Shrimp Food

PEPPER SHRIMP

Steps:

• Devein the shrimp leaving the shell on. Wash and drain. Season with ginger, pimento pepper, garlic, black pepper, chadon beni, lime juice, 1 chive and salt.
• Take a fork and scour the sides of the carrot. Note: We are doing this to make a pattern. Cut the carrot into 1/8 " slices. Cut the onion in four. Then cut each piece in half. Separate the onion layers. Cut up the hot pepper and chive.
• Heat the oil in the wok over a medium flame. Add the hot pepper and fry for 1 minute. Be careful! Add the shrimp and stir fry for 1 minute. Add about 1/4 cup of ketchup, soy sauce and a little water. Then add the onion, chive, sweet pepper and carrots. Add 1/4 cup ketchup and 1/4 cup water. Stir. Cover and simmer for 2 minutes.
• Remove from the flame when the water has reduced to the right consistency. Garnish with a sprig of chive.

CHINESE SALT AND PEPPER SHRIMP

Steps:

• Devein the shrimp and marinate with salt and ginger. Set aside for 15 minutes.
• During this process, let make the real deal "salt and pepper". Toast Sichuan peppercorn with salt over slow fire until aromatic (takes around 1 minute). Transfer the mixture out and then ground into powder.
• Coat shrimp with starch. Shake off extra starch before frying.
• Heat up oil in wok until you can see waves on the surface. Fry the shrimp for to 1 minute by two batches. Transfer shrimp out. High oil temperature is the key factor to a great flavor.
• Pour the extra oil out and leave only around 1/2 tablespoon. Fry garlic, scallion and chopped fresh peppers until aromatic.
• Return the shrimp and sprinkle 3/4 of the salt and pepper.
• Transfer out and sprinkle the remaining on the surface or on small corner of the serving plate.
