This dish is just amazing. It’s one of those things that sound just okay but once you make it the final product is so good!
The Hong Sue Shrimp adds a nice salty and creaminess with breadcrumbs for a crunch and fennel in replace of onion.
I first had this dish almost two years ago and have been thinking about making it ever since. I have had it in the back of my mind but every time I never ended up making it.
Shrimp is a protein that I like to make for a nice meal on the weekends when I have a little extra time to enjoy it.
However, Hong Sue Shrimp with Feta is really easy to make so you could definitely enjoy this on a weekday.
The one thing I would do differently is use fresh bread crumbs. I used pre made because I didn’t have bread for fresh and it was easier to grab it out of cabinet.
Next time, I think I will definitely try fresh.
