Crispy Potstickers

This Crispy Fried Dough with Shrimp and Vegetables is a delightful dish that combines crunchy rice-based crispy fried dough (锅巴) with succulent shrimp, fresh green beans, sweet corn, and a tangy tomato sauce. The key to this recipe lies in the perfectly fried dough—lightly crisped in oil to maintain its satisfying crunch even after being coated in the rich, sticky sauce. Fresh tomatoes are sautéed until they break down into a thick, flavorful base, enhanced with a touch of sugar and vinegar for a sweet-and-sour kick. Tender shrimp, blanched green beans, and corn add vibrant texture and color, making every bite a harmony of flavors. Quick to prepare yet impressive in taste, this dish is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion. The contrast of crispy, chewy, and juicy elements makes it truly irresistible!

1
Step 1
Purchase rice-based crispy fried dough, also known as ‘锅巴’, and ensure it is fresh and crispy. Avoid using low-quality or stale crispy fried dough.
2
Step 2
Lightly fry the purchased crispy fried dough in oil to restore its crunchiness. This step is crucial to prevent the dough from becoming soft after being coated with sauce.
3
Step 3
Blanch green beans, corn, and shrimp in boiling water until they are cooked. You can use a pre-packaged stir-fry mix from Yangzhou as a substitute for green beans and corn. Keep the blanching water simmering and use it later. Score a cross on the top of the tomatoes and blanch them in boiling water to remove their skin.
4
Step 4
Peel and chop the tomatoes, then heat some oil in a pan and sauté the chopped tomatoes until they are soft and the sauce is thickened. Add water, sugar, and vinegar to the pan and stir-fry until the sauce is thick and sticky. Finally, add the shrimp, green beans, corn, and crispy fried dough to the pan and stir-fry until everything is well combined.
