3 tablespoons oil

7-9 cloves garlic, minced

3 tablespoons ground black bean sauce

1½ tablespoons sambal oelek

½ tablespoon sweet soy sauce

4 tablespoons water

1 Using a sharp knife, cut a deep slit along the center of the back of the shrimp to
create a butterfly effect. Remove any veins and rinse the shrimp under cold water. Set
the shrimp aside.

2 Heat the oil in a wok or large pan over high heat. Sauté the garlic until golden and
fragrant for about 1 to 2 minutes.

3 Toss in the shrimp, bean sauce, sambal oelek, sweet soy sauce, and water. Stir-fry

thoroughly for 1 to 2 minutes. Once the shrimp have turned a bright pink-orange color,
remove from the heat and serve immediately.
