I have a pound of some nice plump fresh shrimp that I was able to source from H-Mart. I wanted to make something special other than my usual “halabos na hipon” steamed shrimp or the family’s favorite gambas al ajillo.
I found a recipe online, and this was adapted from it.
It was effortless to prepare, and you didn’t need special equipment or ingredients. I had everything I needed, and the result far exceeded my expectations.
The only thing I changed was I omitted the chiles and five spice powder from the recipe.
The family more than loved it, they literally inhaled dinner that night. Will surely make it again.
