White gourd and shrimp

Introduction:

"Houchu has briefly introduced this dish. I'm afraid it's hard to taste the wax gourd. Originally, I used a flower knife to mark a small space on the hard side of the wax gourd to help it taste. The frost just came. Although the wax gourd didn't grow much, it had to be harvested. Why don't you try this dish? As a result, we designed the method according to our memory and imagination, because white gourd with shrimps is not suitable for heavy sauce and heavy color seasoning in order not to lose the fragrance of white gourd and refreshing characteristics of shrimps. It's enough to put an appropriate amount of salt and a little soy sauce for seasoning, and the color of the dish should not be too deep. This dish is red and green, and it is healthy and delicious

Production steps:

Step 1: cut the wax gourd into long pieces as big as mahjong, and cut a small grid with a knife on the hard side, about 1cm deep. Separate the green and white chives, and cut them into grains;

Step 2: shell the shrimp. If there is black line on the back of the shrimp, use a knife to cut 0.5cm deep on the back. Pick the shrimp line with toothpick, and then put it in a small bowl. Add 1 / 2 tsp salt, 1 / 4 tsp pepper, 1 tsp cooking wine and 1 / 2 tsp corn starch. Marinate by hand and set aside;

Step 3: start the pot, open fire, heat the pot, add oil, then add ginger and scallion, saute until fragrant;

Step 4: pour in the wax gourd;

Step 5: stir fry slightly and pour in the soup (no soup can be put in water) for about 1 rice bowl, then simmer the wax gourd slowly;

Step 6: after stewing the wax gourd until translucent, add 1 / 2 tsp salt, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 / 2 tsp sugar, sprinkle a little pepper, cover well, and simmer the checked side of the wax gourd for a while;

Step 7: turn over the wax gourd. At this time, we can see that the juice has penetrated into the lattice of the wax gourd. Increase the heat and collect the juice to about half a bowl. Put the wax gourd and juice in reserve;

Step 8: open fire again, heat about 50% of the pot, pour in the shrimps, stir fry until seven to eight mature;

Step 9: pour in wax gourd and juice, sprinkle a few drops of sesame oil, stir fry a few times, out of the pot, sprinkle some green on the surface.

Materials required:

Shrimp: 10-15

Ginger: 4-5 tablets

Scallion: 1-2

Salt: right amount

Soy sauce: moderate

Sugar: right amount

Cooking wine: moderate

Pepper: right amount

Sesame oil: appropriate amount

Note: first, shrimp can also be salted with a little egg white, but I don't think there are many shrimp, and I don't want to waste them, so it's OK to use proper amount of corn starch; second, it's suggested that you don't use soy sauce when cooking, only use a little raw soy sauce to flavor and flavor, if the color is too dark, it doesn't match the fried shrimp; third, it's suggested to put a little raw soy sauce, if only salt is put, the color of the dish is too light, put a little raw soy sauce A little bit of color, but also Tixiang and Tiwei.
