I need to know that reason? (pole, reel, swimbaits etc) all my recipes are like Cal's rods.. they each have a very specific application (purpose)
Reel and a Pole along with 1 or 2 swimbaits. Shall I go light on the pepper?
Ohh you need the "My Reel is pimp so i cooked you some Shrimp" recipe..
Hot and Spicy Shrimp in oyster Sauce
Dish name: My Reel is pimp so I cooked you some Shrimp
-Buy 1 or 2 lb (7 per person is plenty) of large jumbo shrimp no shells~cleaned. Large tiger shrimp would be nice. Get from a nice Fish Monger
- half of yellow onion (Diced)
- 6 large cloves of garlic (don't cut in pieces, just crush)
-Garlic sauce (see picture)
-Hot Sauce (see picture)
-Can of Sliced Water Chestnuts
-Can of whole baby Corn
-Soy beans (shelled if in season)
-Vegetables of your choice
Cook your white rice first while you cook the vegetables (I use the Uncle Bens Conventional rice and cook it in the microwave)
Optional Vegetables: I like to add a few different vegetables to the dish.
So before cooking the Shrimp.
1) Quickly blanch some Broccoli or Asparagus (cut asparagus into 2inches spears) Blanching is a quick steam, you can do this by taking a medium pot adding about 3 inches of water or Chicken stock, bring to a boil, add Vegetable, steam for a few minutes, until vegetable is cooked yet still crunchy.
2) In The frying pan add some Olive oil, 2 Cloves of Crushed Garlic slightly brown the Garlic over medium heat, add the Onion and sauté the chopped onion until golden brown, Add vegetable, Water Chestnuts, the Baby Corn. 2 Table Spoons of the oyster Sauce, 1 Table spoon of the Hot sauce, Let cook over medium heat for 3-5 minutes (until all the flavors are infused)
3) Remove Vegetables, set aside, return vegetables to frying pan after your have cooked the shrimp (this step is just to heat the Vegetables back up)
1 - heat your frying pan with few drips of olive oil
2 - drop 4 cloves of garlic
3 - in about 50 seconds, add the shrimp
4 - add some black pepper (no salt as you get enough from oyster sauce)
5 - add two tablespoon of oyster sauce
6 - add 1 tablespoon of the hot sauce (with the chicken on the picture) don't over do it because you don't want hot sauce to over power the shrimp and oyster sauce.
Cook until shrimp is nice and golden. Add the vegetables back to into the frying pan.. On a nice plate, layer the white rice, punch out the middle section of the rice in small circle, and drop the shrimp dish right in the hole. You can add a garnish like thinly sliced scallion, but not necessary.
Let me know how it goes.
