Open-back shrimp with chopped pepper and garlic paste
Overview
Today I saw how big the fresh shrimps sold in the supermarket were, so I bought a few to make open-back shrimps. Use chopped chili peppers and minced garlic to steam them. The garlic flavor is very strong. With a lot of garlic and minced chili peppers, even the steamed shrimps will not be fishy.

Steps
-
I saw some very big shrimps today, so I bought a few. These shrimps are almost as long as my 9-inch plate. It’s quite big
-
Cut off the shrimp gun diagonally at the eye area
-
Insert a toothpick into the cut gap to remove the sandbags from the shrimp heads
-
Cut the back without cutting through, and pick out the shrimp lines.
-
Chop the garlic into puree, add an appropriate amount of chopped chili, add a little seafood soy sauce and rice wine, mix well
-
Put the open-backed shrimp into the plate
-
Put the minced garlic on your back,
-
Steam for 6 minutes. This time I forgot to chop the open-backed shrimp horizontally a few times, and as a result, the shrimp curled up when steamed. This picture has a serious color cast due to the blue glass in my kitchen
-
Remedy: Pat the open-backed shrimps flat, and chop them gently a few times, but don’t cut them off, so they won’t curl when steamed.

Serve the steamed shrimps
