SHRIMP WITH LOBSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Peel and devein the shrimp. Boil 2 cups of water in a large wok and stir in the ground pork. Break up any clumps and cook for about 1 minute, until the pork is no longer pink. Drain the pork in a mesh strainer and give it a quick rinse. This will give you a much clearer, cleaner sauce.
• Wash your wok and place over medium high heat. Add the vegetable oil, garlic, ground pork, and shrimp and stir-fry for 10-20 seconds. Add the wine and stir-fry for another 10 seconds. Add the chicken stock, sesame oil, sugar, salt, and white pepper. Stir in the peas.
• Once the mixture comes to a simmer, stir in the cornstarch slurry a little bit at a time. Let the mixture bubble and thicken. It should be able to coat a spoon, but it shouldn't have a gloopy consistency. If it gets too thick, add a little more chicken stock. If it's too thin, add more slurry.
• Spread the slightly beaten egg and scallion across the mixture and let simmer for 5 seconds. Use your spatula to fold the egg into the sauce with a few strokes. Serve over white rice.

SHRIMP WITH LOBSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Combine the shrimp, soy sauce, ginger and white pepper in a medium bowl.
• Heat the vegetable oil in the wok until shimmering. Add the pork and cook, stirring occasionally and breaking up the meat, until browned and mostly cooked through, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and cook, stirring, until combined, about 2 minutes.
• Slowly pour 2 3/4 cups chicken broth into the pan; bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the sauce is slightly reduced and the pork is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
• Mix the cornstarch and remaining 1/4 cup chicken broth to make a slurry. Slowly stir the mixture into the pan and cook, stirring, until thickened, about 2 minutes. Add the shrimp mixture and the beaten eggs. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp is cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in the peas and remove from the heat. Serve over rice.
