Why we have to STIR & FRY. Dry shrimp can be easily cooked, you will be able to smell the aromatic shrimp while cooking this. Make sure to stir the shrimp to avoid it being overcook and burnt. Do not let it turn too dark else it will taste bitter.

So keep an eye on it at medium heat while look and stir.
