| 2 ounces dried cloud's ears fungus | 2 cups tepid water | 1/2 pound large shrimp, shelled |
| 1 tablespoon light soy sauce | 1/2 teaspoon fresh-grated ginger | 1 tablespoon dry sherry |
| 1 clove garlic, crushed | 1/2 tablespoon peanut oil | 2 tablespoons chicken broth |
| 2 tablespoons oyster sauce | 1/2 tablespoon cornstarch mixed with 1/2 tablespoon cold water | pinch of sugar |
| 1 | Soak the fungus in the water for 1/2 hour. Drain. |
| 2 | Clean the shrimp, and marinate them in the soy sauce, ginger, and sherry for about 15 minutes. |
| 3 | Saute the garlic in the peanut oil in a hot wok or frying pan just for a moment. Drain the shrimp, and saute them with the garlic until they change color and are white and reddish, rather than gray. Add the fungus, and cook for a few minutes, or until everything is hot. Mix together the chicken broth, oyster sauce, cornstarch and water mixture, and sugar. Add to the pan. Saute until the sauce thickens. |
