Yesterday, I served this shrimps to my 10 friends during far-east dinner at my home near Warsaw,PL. All people loved them very much. Your Grandma's recepies are very valuable and let all of us keep then alive. Thanks Pailin. By the way, instead of shrimp paste in jar, I made the paste as your Grandma - using heads of shrimps !

So easy to prepare. Definitely an awesome meal when you look in freezer and say omg I have shrimp....what to do? Loved this. Many cuts above overused shrimp scampi. Thank you grandma.

Oh, I forgot. A must is to do the fried crisp garlic to sprinkle on top. Elevates the dish

I can confirm that this is similar to stir fired garlic and (white) pepper shrimp, the sauce is heavenly delicious, when you cook do at least 2 times more to soak your rise.
I also did the Gai (chicken) variant, using thighs (fry them hard to get the browning) and the shrimp paste, and it comes out as good.

Would you say that this is a variant of "goong pad kretiam prik thai", stir fried garlic and pepper shrimp?

Pai,
This is a great recipe. I didn’t have so much shrimp, but filled in with some bean sprouts I had in the refrigerator. The sauce is delicious.
Thanks, and love to your dear Grandma❤️❤️

Great recipe. I added two bird eye chilis to the herb paste and some angel hair pasta in the last minute of cooking. It’s such a pungent flavor and such a fast prep. Highly recommend.

I was nervous because I couldn't find oyster sauce or shrimp paste in time but WOW. I'm relatively new to cooking, and this recipe is a game-changer. My wife loved it too. Frying up the shrimp got pretty dramatic because I put a lid on it and then the condensation started falling back into the oil and going crazy, but I persevered. DELICIOUS. Excited to try it again but with shrimp paste and oyster sauce!

I'm in shock - I made this and it tasted better than restaurant quality, which is amazing! This recipe is simple with clear and precise instructions with pictures of the paste and video to follow along. Thank you so much for sharing this wonderful recipe. This is a keeper!

So simple and so delicious! Made it tonight and my husband couldn't stop talking about how good it was. With a little jasmine rice and a separate cabbage shitake stir fry dish on the side. Thank you!
