Ingredients

  • 400g large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 1/2 cup roasted peanuts
  • 6-8 dried red chilies
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 1 inch ginger (minced)
  • 2 green onions (cut into 1-inch pieces)
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Chinese black vinegar
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine

Steps

  1. Marinate shrimp with salt, pepper, and 1 teaspoon cornstarch for 10 minutes
  2. Mix sauce ingredients: soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, and 1 teaspoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons water
  3. Heat oil in a wok over high heat, quickly sear shrimp until pink, about 1 minute per side, set aside
  4. In the same wok, add dried chilies and stir-fry until fragrant (be careful not to burn)
  5. Add garlic and ginger, stir-fry for 30 seconds
  6. Return shrimp to the wok, pour in the sauce mixture
  7. Toss everything together, add peanuts and green onions
  8. Stir-fry for another 30 seconds until sauce coats everything, serve immediately

Tips

Do not overcook the shrimp - they should be just cooked through and still tender. The dried chilies add aroma more than heat; remove them before eating if you prefer less spice. Toasted cashews can be used instead of peanuts for a different flavor profile.
