set aside. Heat wok till smoking, add oil, put all shrimp in at
once, stir fry, keeping them in motion continuously so they cook
evenly. When they begin to curl, remove and set aside. Soak black
beans, rinse and mash. Heat wok, add 2 tbs oil, add beans and
garlic, stir till aroma is strong, add meat in small pieces, stir
fry until cooked, about 4 minutes. Add broth, soy and sugar,
stirring until it comes to a boil. Thicken mixture with cornstarch
paste, a little at a time, do not let it get too thick, should be
like a cream sauce. Slowly stir in beaten eggs. Cook one minute,
then add shrimp. Mix well and serve. *note* Fermented black beans
have a flavor that is very unique. Do not substitute with any other
black bean mixture as it will change the taste quite a bit. If you
do, lotsa luck.... FBB are small, black, dry and very
salty. |
