Introduction
"This is just like you would get at a Cantonese Chinese restaurant. There is no lobster in the sauce. Medium to large shrimp can be used. It is great served over brown rice. I sometimes add broccoli (not included in recipe) to up the nutritional value." "This is just like you would get at a Cantonese Chinese restaurant. There is no lobster in the sauce.

Ingredients
-
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 teaspoons cooking sherry
1 pound medium shrimp - peeled and deveined
4 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced
1/4 pound ground pork
1 cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 1/2 tablespoons cornstarch

Directions
1.In a medium bowl, dissolve 1 1/2 teaspoons of cornstarch in the sherry. Add shrimp to the bowl, and toss to coat.

Add garlic to the hot oil, and fry for a few seconds, then add the ground pork. Cook, stirring constantly until pork is no longer pink.
3.Combine 1 cup water, soy sauce, sugar and salt; stir into the wok with the pork. Bring to a boil, cover, reduce heat to medium, and simmer for about 2 minutes. Mix together the remaining 1 1 /2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 1/4 cup cold water. Pour into the pan with the pork, and also return shrimp to the pan. Return to a simmer, and quickly stir while drizzling in the beaten egg. Serve hot over rice.
