Ingredients

  • 1 ½ teaspoons cornstarch

  • 2 teaspoons cooking sherry

  • 1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined

  • ¼ cup vegetable oil

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • ¼ pound ground pork

  • 1 cup water

  • 2 tablespoons soy sauce

  • ¼ teaspoon sugar

  • ½ teaspoon salt

  • ¼ cup cold water

  • 1 ½ tablespoons cornstarch

  • 1 large egg, beaten

Directions

  1. Dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch in sherry in a medium bowl. Add shrimp and toss to coat.

  2. Heat oil in a wok over medium-high heat. Add shrimp and stir-fry until pink, 3 to 5 minutes. Use a slotted spoon to transfer shrimp to a plate; leave as much oil in the wok as possible.

  3. Add garlic to the wok and stir-fry for a few seconds, then add ground pork. Stir-fry until pork is no longer pink, 3 to 5 minutes.

  4. Mix 1 cup water, soy sauce, sugar, and salt together in a small bowl; pour into the wok and stir to combine. Bring to a boil, then cover, reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for about 2 minutes.

  5. Whisk 1/4 cup cold water and 1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch together in a small bowl; pour into the wok. Add shrimp and bring to a simmer. Drizzle beaten egg into the wok, stirring quickly as it cooks. Serve immediately.
