Instructions
- Mix shrimp with salt, white pepper and cornstarch until well combined.
- Crack eggs into a bowl. Add water, salt, white pepper and sesame oil. Beat until it reaches an even, smooth consistency.
- Heat oil in a non-stick pan/wok over medium heat. Fry shrimp on both sides in a single layer. As soon as it curls up and turns pink, turn off the heat. Transfer the shrimp into the egg mixture leaving the oil in the pan.
- Pour everything into the pan/wok. Turn on the heat again to the lowest setting.
- As soon as the bottom part starts to solidify, gently scrape and push the egg with a spatula to allow the liquid part to reach the hot pan. Keep doing so until most of the egg has turned into curd-like mass but still looks a little underdone.
- Sprinkle chopped scallions and immediately dish out to a serving plate or over rice.
