Steps to make winter melon and shrimp
1. Cut the wax gourd into long squares as big as mahjong, and cut small squares on the hard side with a knife, about 1 cm deep. Separate the shallots into green and scallions, and cut them into grains;
2. Shell the shrimps. If there are black lines on the back of the shrimps, cut them 0.5cm deep with a knife, remove the shrimp lines with a toothpick, and put them in a small bowl with about 1/2 tsp of salt, pepper 1/4 tsp, cooking wine 1 tablespoon, and corn starch1.
3. Take out the pot, fire, put oil in the pot, add ginger slices and scallions, and saute;
4. Pour in wax gourd;
5. Stir-fry a little, then pour in broth (clear water can be put without broth) about 1 rice bowl, and change to slow fire to stew melon;
6. After the white gourd is stewed until it is translucent, put about 1/2 tsp of refined salt, soy sauce 1 tablespoon, sugar 1/2 tsp, sprinkle a little pepper evenly, and simmer the plaid side of the white gourd for a while;
7. Turn over the wax gourd block. At this time, we see that the juice has penetrated into the grid of wax gourd. Turn the fire to collect the juice to about half a bowl, and hold the wax gourd and juice for later use;
8. Fire again, pour shrimps into the pot at about 50% heat, and stir-fry until 70-80% cooked;
9. Pour the melon with the juice, sprinkle a few drops of sesame oil, stir fry a few times, take out the pot, and sprinkle some green on the surface.
Tips &; Tips
First, shrimp can also be salted with a little egg white, but I think there are not many shrimp and I don't want to waste it. It is also possible to use a proper amount of corn starch instead.
Second, it is recommended that you don't need soy sauce when cooking, but only use a little soy sauce to flavor and season. If the color is too dark, it doesn't match the fried shrimp;
Third, it is recommended to put a little soy sauce. If you only put salt, the color of the dish is too light. Put a little soy sauce to add a little color, but it can also enhance the fragrance and taste.
