Shrimp and Cucumber

This quick and nutritious Stir-Fried Shrimp with Cucumber is a simple yet flavorful dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights. Juicy shrimp are marinated with starch, salt, and a hint of cooking wine (for frozen shrimp) to enhance their natural sweetness, then stir-fried to tender perfection. Crisp cucumber dices add a refreshing crunch, while a light seasoning of salt, chicken essence, and monosodium glutamate brings out the best in both ingredients. The dish comes together in minutes, making it ideal for a healthy, protein-packed meal. For those who love a kick, a spicy twist can easily be added. With its balance of textures and delicate flavors, this stir-fry is a delicious way to enjoy seafood and veggies in one satisfying bite. Perfect served over steamed rice or enjoyed on its own!
