Chef Tips

- Salteie em fogo bem alto em frigideira grande ou panela wok para dourar os ingredientes sem formar poças de líquido no fundo. - Empurre os camarões para um lado da panela ao quebrar os ovos para que cozinhem em contato direto com a superfície quente. - Toste o amendoim moído em frigideira seca por dois minutos antes de finalizar para acentuar a crocância e os óleos aromáticos.

Variations

- Versão Vegetariana: utilize cubos firmes de tofu grelhado no lugar dos camarões e acrescente tiras finas de cenoura e brócolis. - Junte pimenta dedo-de-moça picada sem sementes ou pimenta calabresa em flocos no refogado para conferir picância oriental. - Adicione broto de feijão moyashi fresco no último minuto de fogo para proporcionar textura crocante à preparação.

Substitutions

- Fresh shrimp can be replaced by sautéed chicken breast strips or soft cubes of pork loin in garlic. - Traditional rice noodles like fettuccine can be replaced by oriental vermicelli or thin durum wheat spaghetti. - Brown sugar can be substituted with demerara sugar or cane molasses while maintaining the typical caramelized note.

How to Store

Store in the refrigerator in a closed container for up to two days. To heat while maintaining the integrity of the ingredients, sauté quickly in a hot skillet with a splash of water; avoid heating in the microwave.

Can You Freeze It?

Freezing the prepared dish is not recommended, as the rice noodles become brittle and the shrimp become stiff and fibrous. Consume the recipe fresh immediately after preparation.

What to Serve With

Serve with fresh lime wedges to squeeze on top, sriracha sweet chili sauce, a refreshing cucumber salad, and green tea.
