Easiest Restaurant Style Herbal Drunken Prawn Recipe 药材醉虾 How to cook Chinese Shaoxing Wine Shrimp

When I was young, I used to work for a Chinese restaurant in Singapore as a waitress. One of the most frequently ordered dishes was drunken prawns. At the restaurant, live prawns were used and the protocol was to douse the prawns with alcohol before adding them to the boiling stock. We couldn’t get hold of live prawns but we adopted the same idea and made this dish at home. While I’m sure drunken live prawns would taste much better, Roland’s method is easier for any home cooks to replicate at home.

See the ingredient list below for your easy reference.

Hope you can recreate this yummy dish in the comfort of your home. Happy cooking!
