 --------  ------------  --------------------------------
    2      tablespoons   peanut oil
    3 1/2  tablespoons   chopped ginger
    8                    garlic cloves, peeled and chopped
    1      cup           tomato sauce
      1/2  cup           dry sherry
    1      cup           dark brown sugar
      1/2  cup           soy sauce
      1/4  cup           rice or wine vinegar
    2      tablespoons   hot sauce
    4      pounds        medium shrimp, shelled
 
 
 Heat a wok or large frying pan over high heat until it smokes.
 Add peanut oil, then ginger, reduce heat and add garlic. Stir
 in tomato sauce, sherry, sugar, soy sauce, vinegar and hot sauce.
 Bring to a boil, stirring, until sauce thickens. Pour sauce into
 a bowl and cool; add shrimp. Marinate shrimp, refrigerated and
 covered, 8 hours (I use a plastic zip-type bag.) When ready to
 serve, remove shrimp from marinade, shake off excess and thread
 onto skewers. Prepare a charcoal grill or preheat broiler. Grill
 or broil shrimp on one side until pink. Turn and cook a few minutes,
 until they are just cooked through. Bring marinade to a boil and
 serve with shrimp and plenty of hot bread. Yield: 16 servings
