I have been craving this dish for days now...I dream about it and it's all I think about! I know, very sad. But does anyone know a recipe like it because I'm about to go out to the Chinese place and order some! I mostly just like the sauce, it's like the one for sesame chicken. So anyone have any ideas? I'm desperate and don't want to break my diet (again)!

Well, if you get me the recipe, I will see if I can replicate it into raw, which I can usually do pretty well,


as far as shrimp, you can use oyster mushrooms, which has a good flavor, but I don't know what the sauce is, because I've been vegetarian for many years now, so I've never had it.

but please remember, when you have a craving like that? it WILL go away.

so,enjoy your raw food, and get me a recipe, and I'll do what I can.

I am assuming it is a white sauce kind of like alfredo but with sesame, right?

This one looks like an easy on to covert RP!

It's actually like a honey sesame sauce. I could find a way to convert it. It's very sweet and a bit tart, almost like a sweet and sour sauce. And the shrimp is fried. I've tried to replicate the sauce, but didn't use soy sauce.

# Sauce for Sesame Chicken/Shrimp:
# 1/2 cup water
# 1 cup chicken broth
# 1/8 cup vinegar
# 1/4 cup cornstarch
# 1 cup sugar
# 2 TB dark soy sauce
# 2 TB sesame oil
# 1 tsp chili paste, or more if desired
# 1 clove garlic (minced)
