Tips

  • Saving the tail part of the shrimp makes it beautiful, but be careful of the sharp part.
  • Removing the lungs and snow-white system from the shrimp's head is important.
  • Frying the shrimp bricks adds fatness to the dish.
  • The longer the shrimp is stored in the sauce, the more flavor it absorbs and it won't be poked out.
  • Cooking quickly, just 5 minutes of boiling, is enough.
  • Skimming off foam during boiling makes the water better.
  • Adding red intestine with chicken, beaten up and mixed, makes the sauce fatter and more delicious, which is a secret for this shrimp dish.
