Shrimp and Bittle Melon

This is a recipe from the Hong Kong celebrity chef Chow Chong. The shrimp is dusted with a little cornstarch and oil blanched for couple of minutes; the bitter melon is blanched in water. Pre-soaked dry orange peels, garlic, cured black beans are fried lightly in a little oil before the bitter melon is added. Cooked for a minute or so and add the shrimp with oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, touch of sugar, a little water and cook covered for 3 minutes. Thicken with a little cornstarch in cold water.
