I love shrimp. I liked watching you fix these. I never knew how to remove the vein like u did here. Interesting. I would like to know where u can buy the “fried garlic?” Your presentation is simple and to the point. Kind of surprised that u did not use a wok. Barbara.

Hi, I know that the shrimp shells can be eaten when they’re deep fried, do I eat the shells in this dish or peal them before? Thank you.

I was looking for a new way to cook shrimp. We who live where shrimp are common don't bother removing the vein!
