I’ve been so excited to cook this dish, Shrimps with Black Bean Sauce. When I stumbled upon the recipe, the photos looked extremely delish. I was so excited to replicate it. However, my dish looked extremely different, hahaha! Nevertheless, it still tasted great so I’m posting it here.
This Shrimps with Black Bean Sauce is a Chinese-style dish that we can enjoy eaten newly cooked with steamed rice. Definitely, filling to the stomach. I really love it when I get to cook Chinese dishes as Chinese cuisine is my favorite. My dish’s color looked so much lighter than the one I adapted to. Maybe it’s because I didn’t use dark soy sauce? I opted to use normal soy sauce. Still, a yummy dish!
