Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
  • 2 teaspoon cooking sherry
  • 1lb medium raw shrimp (peeled and deveined)
  • 4 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 1/4lb ground pork
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • 1/4 cup of cold water
  • 1 egg (beaten)

Instructions

  1. In a medium bowl dissolve 1 ½ teaspoon of cornstarch in the cooking sherry. Add the shrimp to the bowl and toss to coat.
  2. Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and stir-fry until pink (about 3-5 minutes). Remove the shrimp to a plate with a slotted spoon (try and leave as much oil in the pan as possible). Add the garlic and stir-fry for a few seconds, and add the ground pork. Stir-fry the pork while breaking it up into small chunks with a spatula or spoon until the pork is no longer pink.
  3. Combine 1 cup of water, soy sauce, sugar, and salt. Stir into the wok with the pork. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and cover. Simmer for about 2 minutes. Mix the remaining 1 ½ tablespoons of cornstarch with a ¼ cup of cold water. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the pan with the pork and return the shrimp to the pan. Return to a simmer and stir quickly while drizzling in the beaten egg.
