Green shrimp with loofah and copper coins
Because I bought a new refrigerator, I became a "shopaholic". Unexpectedly, on Sunday, the vegetable sellers were all "crazy" and the price rose to the sky. They whispered: I haven't been to the vegetable market for a few days. Why is this happening?
I have no choice but to buy less. I chose a large gourd gourd and paid 1.70 yuan. Seeing that bitter gourd was cheaper, I bought a bitter gourd for one yuan. Then go to the supermarket and have a look. The supermarket should not go crazy like a vegetable market. Thinking of having a refrigerator at home, I became bold enough to buy things and buy a few shrimps to eat! There is also rice wine. I have wanted to buy it for a long time, because I was afraid that I wouldn't be able to finish it all in one go and I would waste half of it, so I never dared to buy it. Now there is a refrigerator, buy it! I bought another piece of hawthorn cake, which also needs to be stored in the refrigerator. It was already past eleven o'clock when I got home. Looking at the beautiful loofah, I suddenly wanted to make a strange dish. loofah and shrimp should be delicious.
When making recipes, there was a prompt to "Participate in the Gourmet Theme Week Competition". Haha, this recipe should conform to the concept of Zhejiang cuisine, but I am afraid that my slices will not pass. It's important to participate. We haven't participated in any competition yet. (Look up to the gourmets and give them an award for best courage? Smiling smile: Don't take it seriously. I am sleepwalking)
Don't add too many things to make loofah vegetables, and don't add too much seasonings. The light of loofah is coupled with the umami taste of shrimp. They do not interfere with each other. Each has its own flavor and is very interesting to eat.

    Wash the shrimps. There is no need to peel off the shells at the head and tail of the shrimp, just peel off all the shells of the shrimp. Then go to the shrimp line. I don't know how others go to the shrimp line, but here's what I did: Take the line on the side of the shrimp belly first.

    Now let's cut the loofah. Before I started cutting it, I saw that the loofah was too big and wanted to play tricks. Cutting all slices of stir-fried shrimp is too ordinary and has no artistic conception; well, let's make a "copper coin shrimp" to play with. Hehe, the old glutton suddenly became childish. Such a fat and tender loofah, digging a hole like a copper coin.

    First use a knife to dig a hole in the middle of the towel gourd piles. The knife cuts straight down to make a square shape. Take your time, don't cut too much, and don't cut too little. The square cut to the middle can be removed.

    Three small tomatoes. Four slices of fresh ginger and one single-headed garlic. Shred ginger, beat single-headed garlic and slice it. Because loofah is very easy to cook, ginger and garlic cannot be cut large. It will taste bad if it is not cooked large.
  • Make  step 12

    I made two flowers for the smallest tomato. The larger two only have all four petals in the dish.

    Because discovered that the new refrigerator has a problem, the mood greatly reduced, the next fried system did not shoot a piece. I'm really sorry! Sorry everyone! In fact, frying is also very simple: hot pot cool oil,(oil can be a little more, because to fry shrimp) red pepper fried incense out of use; fried ginger garlic, put string up copper shrimp quickly stir fry, pour marinated shrimp soup (basically cooking wine meaning). I can't eat alcohol, so there's enough alcohol in the soup. If friends can cook some wine alone when cooking, the taste should be more mellow.

    Originally, I thought that the shrimp head would also be with the copper coins, but who knew that after a few stir-fried times, the shrimp head would fall off! Helpless, the shrimp head cannot be connected, so I can only eat headless shrimp. Look: The shrimp heads are hidden behind them.

    I made a full 100 grams of rice today! Because when you think of eating good food, you will taste very well, of course you have to cook more. Enough rice rice, crispy and glutinous loofah, fragrant shrimp, hey! The sweetness of loofah and the sweetness of shrimp do not interfere with each other. It's so interesting. Oh! There is also the delicious soup that cannot be ignored: Friends, do you see the shortcomings of my plate? There was too much soup, and the beautiful little tomato flowers were drowned. But the soup was so delicious that I poured it all into the rice. Oh... meow... It's so delicious.
