Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
- 5 pieces celery stalks
- 3 pieces garlic cloves (minced)
- 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon ground white pepper
Instructions
Rinse the shrimp thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Slice the celery stalks diagonally into thin pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the shrimp to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and are just cooked through. Remove the shrimp and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced celery and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until it is tender-crisp.
Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the celery and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Season with salt and ground white pepper. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is evenly coated.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles if desired.
