Ingredients:
-3000g dried shrimp or 500g fresh shrimp (approximate)

What to Do:
Soak dried shrimp in water for a few hours or until soft. Ground finely in a blender until. If using fresh shrimp; steam or boil shrimp until cooked, peel and ground in blender. Put grounded shrimp in a wok add coloring and stir fry over medium heat until dry (can be made ahead of time and kept for months in a cool dry place).
