Sweet and Sour Shrimp

Shrimps, or small sea creatures, are characterized by a delicate, subtle taste and meat, rich in protein and vitamins. Their taste goes perfectly with a sweet and sour oriental sauce, full of vegetables. We can decorate our shrimps with a variety of vegetables and season with your favorite spices. They taste amazingly with the addition of jasmine rice or cellophane noodles.
