This is just like you would get at a Cantonese Chinese restaurant. There is no lobster in the sauce. Medium to large shrimp can be used. It is great served over white rice.

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons cooking sherry
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
¼ pound ground pork
1 cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce
¼ teaspoon sugar
½ teaspoon salt
1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch
¼ cup cold water
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch in the sherry. Add shrimp to the bowl, and toss to coat.
  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add shrimp, and fry until pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove shrimp to a plate with a slotted spoon, leaving as much oil in the pan as possible. Add garlic to the hot oil, and fry for a few seconds, then add the ground pork. Cook, stirring constantly until pork is no longer pink.
  • Combine 1 cup water, soy sauce, sugar and salt; stir into the wok with the pork. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about 2 minutes. Mix together the remaining 1 1 /2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water. Pour into the pan with the pork, and also return shrimp to the pan. Return to a simmer, and quickly stir while drizzling in the beaten egg. Serve hot over rice.

SHRIMP WITH LOBSTER SAUCE



Shrimp with Lobster Sauce image

This Chinese-American dish got its name because the sauce is often used to dress lobster. This is an adaptation of a dish I grew up with. My father used to make this after discovering it at our local American Chinese restaurant. Shrimp and lobster sauce is a similar simplified version of his Chinatown favorite, Lobster Cantonese. His rendition was the addition of ground pork like his Chinatown favorite.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 thin slices fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground white pepper
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 pound ground pork
2 cloves garlic, minced
3 cups low-sodium chicken broth
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 large eggs, beaten
1 cup frozen peas, thawed
Jasmine rice, for serving

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.
