When I was a child, I learned three impressive adjectives in Chinese class - "bright red", "clear yellow", and "green". I remember when I was a child, I went to a restaurant with my dad on Nanshi Food Street and ordered a plate of cashew shrimp. Hehe, I accurately hit the word 'green oil'. Massive cucumbers, from the waiter carrying the green dish with a smile walking towards us, until it was placed on our table, we still couldn't believe it was cashew shrimp. This is the shadow of cashew shrimp that I had when I was a child. Today, I stir fried this dish myself and deliberately reduced the amount of cucumber used.
