About the Recipe
This dish doesn't actually have any lobster in it, I think the egg is supposed to have a similar texture. Either way, it's a simple-to-make fam-favourite. The heartiness of the pork and egg sauce perfectly compliment the shrimps and then the bits of black bean add little bursts of salty richness.
Ingredients
1-2 lbs ground pork
350 g uncooked shrimps - shelled and deveined
4 eggs
5 cloves garlic
1 tbsp black beans
1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar
1 tsp Maggi sauce
1 tbsp corn starch
Water/chicken stock
1 tsp soy sauce
Steps
1. Wash black beans with warm water then mince with garlic.
2. Fry shrimps just until they curl (partially cooked), remove from pan and set aside.
3. Using the same pan, fry the black beans and garlic for a couple min, then add the ground pork, salt, sugar, and Maggi sauce.
4. Add water/chicken stock to make how much gravy you want (we added enough to cover the meat a couple centimeters).
5. Mix cornstarch with a bit of the broth or water and add to the pan to thicken (adjust to your desired thickness). Add shrimps.
7. Beat eggs and mix in. Add a tsp of dark soy sauce for colour.
