Ingredients: 1 medium taro root, peeled and very thinly sliced on a mandoline (8–10 slices); neutral oil for frying (about 2 cups); 8 oz large shrimp, peeled and deveined; 1 tablespoon ginger, minced; 2 scallions, thinly sliced, whites and greens separated; 2 garlic cloves, minced; 1 tablespoon soy sauce; 1 teaspoon sesame oil; 2 tablespoons neutral oil (for cooking shrimp); 3 tablespoons neutral oil; 1 teaspoon chili flakes; 1/2 teaspoon Sichuan peppercorns, crushed; 2 dried chilies, broken into pieces; 1/4 teaspoon sea salt; lime wedge for serving

A showstopper with intermediate technique: thinly sliced taro is fried until translucent and crisped into a cup shape, then filled with quick-seared ginger-scallion shrimp and drizzled with house chili oil. Surprising texture—like a sophisticated wonton, but elegant and edible throughout.
