Ingredients
Instructions
Marinate the shrimp
Wash the shrimp and marinate them evenly with egg white, starch, and salt.
Prepare the ingredients
Wash the cucumber and cut it together with the canned bamboo shoots into diamond-shaped slices. Peel and wash the carrot, cut it into small slices, and blanch in boiling water.
Stir-fry the shrimp
Heat a wok and add the peanut oil. When the oil reaches about 30% hot (roughly 90 °C / 195 °F), add the shrimp and slide them through briefly until just cooked. Remove and drain off the oil. Pour out the remaining oil.
Stir-fry the vegetables
In a clean wok, pour in the sesame oil and heat to about 50% hot. Add the bamboo shoots, carrot slices, and cucumber slices, slide them through briefly, then remove and drain the oil.
Combine and finish
Heat the original wok again and add sesame oil to about 60% hot. Add the minced scallion and ginger and stir-fry until fragrant. Add the shrimp, vegetables, and seasonings, stir everything together evenly, then plate and serve.
