Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 pound shrimp ((450g, size 50/60, peeled and de-veined))
1 teaspoon vegetable oil ((plus 2 tablespoons, divided))
½ teaspoon cornstarch
½ teaspoon ginger ((minced))
2 teaspoons doubanjiang (chili bean sauce)
2 cloves garlic ((minced))
¼ cup shallots or red onion ((minced))
1 tablespoon ketchup
1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
¼ cup water chestnuts ((chopped, optional))
1 medium carrot ((very finely chopped))
½ red bell pepper ((diced))
1 cup chicken stock ((120 ml))
1 teaspoon rice vinegar
1 teaspoon sesame oil
¼ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon sugar
⅛ teaspoon fresh ground white pepper
2 tablespoons cornstarch ((mixed with 2 tablespoons of water))
1 scallion ((chopped))

Steps:

  • Mix the shrimp together with 1 teaspoon of oil and ½ teaspoon of cornstarch until the shrimp are evenly coated. Set aside.
  • With the burner on low, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil in your wok. Add the ginger and fry for 30 seconds. Next, add the douban jiang or the hot chili oil (with chili flakes), the garlic, and the shallots, and continue to stir fry for another 2 minutes.
  • Next, stir in the ketchup and hoisin sauce, and turn the heat up from low to medium. Let the ketchup and hoisin sauce fry for 1 to 2 minutes to bring out a rich color and flavor. Turn the heat down if it looks like the sauce may burn.
  • Next, add the Shaoxing wine, water chestnuts (if using), and the red bell pepper. Stir-fry for another 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock, and let the mixture come to a boil; then immediately turn the heat down to let the mixture simmer.
  • Add the rice vinegar, sesame oil, salt, sugar and white pepper, and continue to simmer the sauce for another 3 minutes. When 3 minutes have elapsed, turn the heat up slightly and stir in the shrimp.
  • Once the shrimp and sauce mixture returns to a steady simmer, stir in the cornstarch slurry until the sauce has thickened. At this point, the shrimp should be opaque and cooked through. Stir in the scallions. Serve with steamed rice!

Provided by Victor

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 23

1 lb large shrimp (de-veined and peeled, leaving tails attached)
1 Tbsp peanut (or plan cooking oil for stir-frying)
1/2 Tbsp light soy sauce
1/2 Tbsp dark soy sauce
1/4 tsp finely ground Szechuan (Sichuan peppercorns)
1/2 tsp Shaoxing wine (or sherry)
1 Tbsp corn starch
¼ cup peanut oil (you may also use canola oil)
2 Tbsp dried red pepper flakes
1 Tbsp peanut (or plan cooking oil for stir-frying)
1 Tbsp ginger (minced)
2 cloves of garlic (minced)
2 small shallots (thinly sliced)
1/2 each red (yellow and green bell peppers, cut into 1-inch pieces)
2 cups broccoli florets
3 green onions (scallions, cut into ½" pieces on the diagonal)
1 tsp finely ground Szechuan (Sichuan peppercorns)
1/2 Tbsp Shaoxing wine (or sherry)
1 Tbsp low sodium soy sauce
1/2 tsp sea or kosher salt
1/2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp sesame oil
1/2 Tbsp corn starch

Steps:

  • Combine shrimp marinade ingredients in a large bowl, add the shrimp, mix well and set aside.
  • Prepare hot chili oil by heating the oil in a sauce pan until it just starts to smoke, then pour the hot oil over dry chili flakes in a small glass or metal container. Let cool down then strain into a separate container. The hot chili oil can be prepared hours, even days in advance. If making ahead, let the chili flakes soak in oil for hours before straining - this will give you more flavor and heat.
  • Heat one tablespoon of peanut oil in a wok. Add the shrimp with the marinade and stir-fry, stirring frequently, until she shrimp just starts to turn pink, about 2-3 minutes. Do not overcook. Transfer the shrimp into a bowl and set aside.
  • In the same wok, heat another tablespoon of peanut oil. Add the ginger, garlic, shallots and one teaspoon (or more, see note) of hot chili oil. Saute for about 30 seconds, then add the broccoli, bell peppers and the stir fry sauce. Stir fry for about 3-5 minutes, until broccoli is cooked. Add the scallions, sesame oil and the shrimp and saute for another minute, mixing all the ingredients well.
  • Serve hot, as is or with a bowl of jasmine rice.
