HUNAN HOT-AND-SPICY SHRIMP RECIPE - (4.8/5)

Steps:

• Peel the shrimp, leaving the tail segments intact, then devein and clean them. In a bowl, mix together all of the ingredients to make the shrimp coating. Add the shrimp and turn to coat. Refrigerate for 30 minutes. To make the sauce mix together all of the ingredients in a small bowl and reserve. Heat a wok over high heat for 30 seconds. Add the peanut oil, and, using a spatula, coat the wok with the oil. When a wisp of white smoke appears, add the ginger and stir briefly. Add the garlic and stir briefly. Add the shallots, stir to mix, and lower the heat to medium. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the shallots soften. Raise the heat to high, add the shrimp and their coating, and stir to mix. Spread the shrimp in a single layer and cook for 1 minute, or until the shrimp begin to turn pink. Turn the shrimp over and mix. Drizzle in the wine, adding it along the edge of the wok, and mix well. Stir the sauce, pour it over the shrimp, and mix well. Stir-fry for about 1 1/2 minutes, or until the shrimp are well-coated and the sauce begins to bubble. Turn off the heat, transfer to a heated dish, and serve. Hot Pepper Oil: For this infused oil to be a success, the pepper flakes must be very hot, which is why I prefer dried Thai chilies for making the flakes. Heat a wok over high heat for 20 seconds. Add the sesame oil, peanut oil, and pepper flakes and stir. Reduce the heat to medium and cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the oil is very hot, but not boiling. Turn off the heat and let cool to room temperature. Pour the oil, including the pepper flakes, into a sterilized glass jar and close tightly. Allow the oil to rest for 10 minutes and then it can be used. The oil will keep at room temperature for up to 1 week or refrigerated for up to 3 months. The longer the oil is stored, the hotter it will become.

HONDURAN CEVICHE

Steps:

• Place the coconut in the palm of your hand. With the back of a cleaver or a heavy knife, whack the coconut along its middle, rotating it in your hand until it splits in two. (As it begins to crack, it will leak; work over a large bowl if you wish to save the liquid.) Rinse the halves and use a table knife to pry the coconut meat away from the outer shell. Using a vegetable peeler, make thin strips of coconut meat until you have 2 1/4 cups. Set the strips aside. (Save the remaining coconut meat for another use.)
• Place the coconut milk, lime juice, nuoc mam, ginger, jalapeno and sugar in the container of a blender and blend until very smooth. When ready to serve, toss the tuna in the sauce. Toss again with the coconut strips, cilantro, scallions and chives. Place in small serving bowls and garnish with watercress and red bell pepper.
