Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
pounds Green beans
3 cups Peanut oil for deep-frying,
Plus 3 tablespoons for
Stirfrying
2 Scallions, chopped
2 Cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons Minced soaked dried shrimp
2 tablespoons Water
1 tablespoon Soy sauce
1 teaspoon Sugar
Salt and freshly ground
Black pepper

Directions

Heat 3 cups of the peanut oil in a large pot to deep-fry temperature (350 degrees F), and fry the beans in batches until tender but still crisp, 2 to 3 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer beans to paper towels to drain.

Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons oil in a wok or large skillet. Add the scallions and garlic and cook just long enough to release the aromas, about 1 minute. Add the shrimp and green beans and mix well to coat the beans. Stir in the water, soy sauce, sugar, salt and pepper, and cook for another 1 to 2 minutes, tossing to heat through.

Serve immediately.

Yield: 4 to 6 servings
