Deep Fried Paper Wrapped Shrimp
4 American servings
4 Chinese servings
4 large shrimp
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon white pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed
2 teaspoons sherry
4 pieces of waxed paper, 8 inches square
1 tablespoon oil
4 thin strips of red sweet
pepper
1 scallion white part only, quartered lengthwise
4 thin slices fresh ginger root
oil for deep frying
shredded lettuce
4 tomato wedges
Methods
Shell the shrimp and take out the black vein. Mix the shrimp with salt, pepper,garlic and sherry and leave for at least 15 minutes. Toss occasionally. Drain. Rub one side of the pieces of waxed paper with the oil. Place 1 shrimp on top of each piece of paper diagonally just off center. Line with 1 pepper strip, 1 piece of scallion and 1 slice ginger. Fold the paper as illustrated in the picture. Heat oil for deep frying until hot, but not smoking (about 350 to 360) and deep fry the shrimp for about 5 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain. Place the packages, unopened, on shredded lettuce and garnish each with a tomato wedge. Excellent to start off a meal, especially when served with salt and pepper mix and plum sauce.
Spices
Most Chinese, Indonesian and Indian recipes call for spices. For maximum flavor, whole spice seeds should be fleshly ground each time spices are required. If you do not have a granite mortar and pestle you will find and electric coffee grinder or small powerful blender an ideal substitute. “Wet” spices such as ginger, garlic and onions are often ground prior to cooking.
Once again, a blender with a small jar will do the trick, provided you add little liquid to keep the blades turning, if the recipe calls for the ground ingredients to be fried in oil, use a little of this during grinding; if they are to be simmered in liquid such as coconut milk, add a tablespoon or two of this instead.
