Published Apr 05, 2019 Updated Sep 05, 2024 This dish is loaded with juicy shrimp in a rich, savory sauce made with garlic and ginger. The sauce is thickened with corn starch and include eggs to give it a silky texture. I think whoever invented the dish is a smart marketing whiz, as it sounds so much more delicious with the word “lobster” in its name. Shrimp is always a great dish to serve, as the Cantonese pronunciation of 虾 (xiā) sounds like 哈 (hā), which means laughter or happiness.
