Ingredients
  • 107.5 g Crustaceans, shrimp, raw
  • 43.0 g Lavash
  • 100g Sliced water chestnuts in water
  • 24.0 g Seeds, sunflower seed kernels, dried
  • 15g Fresh Ginger, minced
  • 25g Onions, spring or scallions
  • 24.0 ml Shaoxing Cooking Wine
Method
  1. 01Pat the shrimp dry and chop into small, bite-sized pieces. Finely mince the ginger and slice the scallions, keeping the white and green parts separate.
  2. 02Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the shrimp and sauté until just turning pink, about 2 minutes. Stir in the ginger, white parts of the scallions, and the water chestnuts for crunch. Deglaze the pan with the Shaoxing wine and cook until the liquid evaporates.
  3. 03In a dry pan, lightly toast the sunflower seed kernels until fragrant and golden. Crush them slightly and toss with the green parts of the scallions to create a fresh, crunchy gremolata.
  4. 04Warm the lavash briefly in the pan until pliable. Spoon the shrimp and water chestnut mixture into the center of the lavash. Sprinkle generously with the sunflower gremolata.
  5. 05Roll the lavash tightly and slice on a bias. Serve warm, ensuring the crunch of the water chestnuts and sunflower seeds provides a textural contrast to the tender shrimp.
