Fried cashews. Pour a little oil into the pot, not too much. Because the color of the oil after frying cashews will become darker, it will affect the color of the dishes if used to fry light-colored dishes. If you have a lot of oil left after frying cashews, you don’t need to throw it away. You can use it to fry darker-colored dishes. Heat oil in a pan, add cashew nuts and fry over medium-low heat.
Step 4
Keep turning the cashews to ensure even heating. Never use too much firepower, otherwise the cashews will be easily fried black. When the cashews are a little lighter in color than we want, stop firing. Remove the cashew nuts to control oil and let cool until set aside.
Step 5
Remove the grit and wash the shrimps, add salt, cooking wine, and white pepper and marinate them at the bottom. Return to the pot, pour an appropriate amount of oil into the pot, and heat. At this time, apply a layer of dry starch on the marinated shrimp, just a thin layer, not too thick. After the oil is hot, fry the shrimps. When the shrimps are rolled, take them out and set aside.
Step 6
Re-heat the pot, add base oil to the pot, and when the oil is hot, add the asparagus and stir-fry. Because it has been blanched before, the frying time does not need to be too long.
Step 7
Pour in the shrimps and cashews, add salt, stir-fry evenly, and add an appropriate amount of water starch to thicken.

The oil left after frying cashews is very dark in color and can be used to fry other dark-colored dishes. Do not use it to fry this dish, because the color of this dish is bright green. If you use the oil left after frying cashews, the taste will be greatly compromised. .
2. When frying cashews, always do not use too much heat and add cold oil to the pan. Stop frying when the color is slightly lighter than what you want. After the spontaneous combustion process, the color is just right. Let it cool before serving until it tastes crispy.
3. The advantage of blanching asparagus in advance is that it can shorten the frying time to ensure that it tastes crispy. In addition, after blanching in hot water and cooling in cold water, the color of asparagus will be extraordinarily green.
