How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to choose fresh American corn
- For the stir-fried corn with dried shrimp, you should choose American corn for better taste. Look for fresh ears, with green husks that are not dry, and the corn silk should still be soft and smooth, while the stem should not be dark or wilted.
- Choose ears with husks tightly hugging the corn inside. You should also pay attention to the kernels; they should be plump, uniform, shiny, and straight.
- Avoid choosing corn that is too big or too small; opt for moderately sized, elongated ears, as large ones may be overripe, while very small ones might be immature, making the stir-fry less tasty.
How to choose delicious and quality dried shrimp (shrimp floss)
- To choose delicious and quality shrimp floss, you should buy it from reputable dry food stores, supermarkets, or shopping centers.
- When purchasing shrimp floss, you should carefully check the packaging for any tears and pay attention to the origin of production and expiration date to avoid buying low-quality food products.

Stir-fried Corn
Place a pan on the stove, add 2 tablespoons of cooking oil. Wait for the oil to heat and lightly boil, then add the finely chopped green onion and sauté until fragrant. When the green onion turns golden, add the corn and shrimp and stir-fry evenly until the corn is cooked.
To give the stir-fried corn a fragrant and rich flavor, season it with 1 tablespoon of fish sauce, 1/2 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/2 tablespoon of seasoning powder, then gently stir to ensure the mixture absorbs the spices evenly.
Then add 1/2 teaspoon of chili powder and finely chopped green onion, stir well, and sauté for an additional 2 minutes before turning off the stove.
