Faulpez fries Thai Stir-fried Shrimp

Ingredients:
shrimps (I bought 200g of it)
2 Tbsp Chilli Paste in soy bean oil
fresh chilies (I bought 1 only because I can't take spice)
long green beans
1 red capsicum
1 1/2 Tbsp sugar




Then I follow the instructions from Amporn's Thai Kitchen

1) Clean and peel shell of shrimps.
2) Wash long green beans and cut into short stripes.
3) Wash red pepper and cut into short stripes.
4) Peel garlic, wash them well then chop garlic.
5) Thinly slice the fresh chili.
6) Heat oil in a pan on medium heat.
7) When the oil is hot, add chopped garlic.
8) Add chilli paste in soy bean oil. Stir well.
9) Add cut long green beans and stir for 1 minute of until green beans are getting soft
10) Seasoning with sugar and thin soy sauce.
11) Add shrimps. Stir well until shrimps are cooked.
12) Add sliced fresh chilies.
13) Add cut red capsicum and stir until all ingredients mix thoroughly.

And it's done.. yummy! A bit too hot though so I ate with rice!

Lastly, I must be thankful for Amporn's Thai Kitchen for sharing such a great recipe!

p/s: More about Chilli Paste in Soya Bean Oil which was given to me by Thai gal when she left Melbourne last year...

Other names: Roasted Chilli Paste, nahm prik pow in Thai, chilli jam
Made primarily from roasted red chillis and ground dried shrimp with a wonderful mellow taste.
An excellent accompaniment to steamed jasmine rice. Often added to Tom Yum soup recipes to enhance taste and coloring. This paste is mildly spicy and somewhat sweet. Dip with shrimp crackers or chips, stir fry with vegetables or meat, or even spread on bread for an exotic sandwich.
