Ingredients
- 1 pound of prawns or other shrimp
- 1/2 teaspoon of salt
- 1 teaspoon of cornstarch
- 1/3 cup of chopped onions
- 1/3 cup of chopped white leeks
- 1/3 cup of peas (fresh or frozen)
- 1 head of iceberg lettuce
- 2 Yiou-Tias
- Seasoning
- 4 chopped green onions (scallions)
- 1 tablespoon of soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon of chicken stock (or water)
- 1/2 teaspoon of sesame oil.
- A pinch of white pepper
Directions
Clean and shell the prawns, pat dry.
Cut into small pieces and marinate for 10 minutes in salt and cornstarch (mixed with 1/4 teaspoon water).
Cut Yiou-Tias into 1-inch sections, fry in hot oil until crisp.
Pat dry, flatten with a spatula or the side of a chopping knife, and tear or cut into small pieces.
Fry prawns in hot oil, stirring until they change color.
Fry onions.
Add shrimp, then seasoning; mix until coated.
Mix with Yiou-Tias.
* Wash the lettuce and tear the leaves off, keeping them whole.
Serve the shrimp wrapped in lettuce leaves. Serves four to six.
Note: If you cannot find Yiou-Tias or wish to leave them out, the shrimp alone is still delicious.
