Instructions

Step 1

Place the shrimp in a bowl, add the egg, cornstarch, and flour, and stir until everything is coated into a smooth batter.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a wok. First, fry the cashews until lightly golden, then remove and set aside. Add the battered shrimp and spread them out in a single layer; after a brief moment, pour them out and drain. Return the wok to the heat with a little oil, add the scallion and garlic, and pour in the cooking wine. Add the vinegar, salt, MSG, and broth, then return the shrimp and cashews to the wok. Toss to coat evenly, drizzle with the sesame oil, and serve immediately.
