Hunan is a province in south-eastern China known for spicy food.

"Hunan shrimp" refers to a specific way of cooking shrimp. Or it can also refer to a range of different rice and noodle dishes that contain seafood cooked this way as the main ingredient.

Hunan Hot-and-Spicy Shrimp Recipe

1 pound large shrimp (there are about 40 shrimps per pound)

Shrimp coating:

1 Tablespoon cornstrach

Or for a more crunchy coating:

2 tablespoons lightly beaten egg whites

1 tablespoon mung bean starch

1 teaspoon sugar

1/2 teaspoon salt

Pinch of white pepper

Sauce:

5 tablespoons ketchup

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 teaspoons white rice vinegar

2 teaspoons light soy sauce

1 1/2 teaspoons pepper flakes from Hot Pepper Oil (below) or 1 1/2 teaspoons coarsely ground dried chillies

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 cup peanut oil

1 tablespoon peeled and minced ginger

1 tablespoon minced garlic

1/2 cup 1/4-inch-dice shallots (or onions)

1 1/2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine

2 tablespoons peanut oil

1 red bell pepper seeded and cut into thin strips (optional)

1 green bell pepper seeded and cut into thin strips (optional)

1/2 lb asparagus trimmed and cut into 1 - inch pieces (optional)

  1. Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail segments intact, then de-vein and clean them.
  2. In a bowl, mix together all of the ingredients to make the shrimp coating. Add the shrimp and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. To make the sauce mix together all of the ingredients in a small bowl and reserve.
  4. Heat a wok or a large, deep skillet a bit over average-high heat so long as a drop of water sizzles.
  5. Swirl in 2 tsps of the oil, and add the shrimp.
  6. Stir-fry so long as just opaque in the centre, about 3 minutes, transfer to a plate.
  7. Add the peanut oil to the wok , swirl to coat the wok with the oil. When a wisp of white smoke appears, add the ginger and stir briefly. Add the garlic and stir briefly. Add the shallots, stir to mix, and lower the heat to medium. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the shallots soften.
  8. Add the bell peppers and asparagus, stir-fry so long as crisp-tender, about 2 minutes.
  9. Raise the heat to high, add the shrimp and their coating, and stir to mix. Spread the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1 minute, or until the shrimp begin to turn pink. Turn the shrimp over and mix.
  10. Drizzle in the wine, adding it along the edge of the wok, and mix well. Stir the sauce, pour it over the shrimp, and mix well. Stir-fry for about 1 1/2 minutes, or until the shrimp are well-coated and the sauce begins to bubble.
  11. Turn off the heat, transfer to a heated dish, and serve with rice.
