Put the shallot, garlic, chili peppers, dried shrimp, belacan, and gula melaka in a mortar and pound with a pestle until it forms a chunky paste. You can also pulse them in a food processor.
Heat the oil in a large saute pan or wok until hot. Add the shrimp mixture and saute until fragrant and dark brown. Add the kangkung and 2 tablespoons of water and cover the pan with a lid.
Steam for 1 minute and then remove the lid. Toss the vegetables and shrimp together until they're evenly distributed.
