I used to accompany my late paternal grandmother to the wet this way, we know exactly which part of the pig our ground pork is made from.
Recipe Summary Shrimp With Lobster Sauce
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.Ingredients | Ground Pork Recipes Chinese
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
Directions
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.
