Shrimp and bok choy stirfry from food and wine Magazine March 2009
3/4 cup stock
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon mirin or sake
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch dissolved in 1 tablespoon of water
2 tablespoons canola oil
2 tablespoons finely julienned peeled fresh ginger
1 clove garlic thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1 large onion thinly sliced
1/4 pound shiitake mushrooms thinly sliced
1 small head bok choy, about 12 ounces, thinly sliced crosswise
1 pound shrimp shells and deveined
Brown rice for serving
In a small bowl, whisk the broth with the soy sauce, mirin and cornstarch slurry.
Heat wok until very hot about three minutes. Add the canola oil, julienned ginger, garlic and crushed red pepper and stirfry until fragrant, about 20 seconds.
Add the onion and shiitake slices and stirfry until they are slightly browned and tender, about three minutes.
Add the sliced bok choy and cook until leaves are wilted and stems are Chris tender, about two minutes.
Add to the shrimp and stirfry until they are pink and nearly cooked, about three minutes.
Stir the sauce and stir in the walk and cook until slightly thickened about two minutes.

Steps:

  • 1. In a small bowl, whisk the broth with the soy sauce, mirin and cornstarch slurry. 2. Heat wok until very hot about three minutes. Add the canola oil, julienned ginger, garlic and crushed red pepper and stirfry until fragrant, about 20 seconds. 3. Add the onion and shiitake slices and stirfry until they are slightly browned and tender, about three minutes. 4. Add the sliced bok choy and cook until leaves are wilted and stems are Chris tender, about two minutes. 5. Add to the shrimp and stirfry until they are pink and nearly cooked, about three minutes. 6. Stir the sauce and stir in the walk and cook until slightly thickened about two minutes.

Tips:

  • Use fresh bok choy: Fresh bok choy has crisp stalks and dark green leaves. Avoid wilted or yellowed bok choy.
  • Rinse bok choy thoroughly: Rinse bok choy under cold water to remove any dirt or grit. Be sure to separate the leaves from the stalks to rinse them properly.
  • Cut bok choy properly: Cut bok choy into 1-inch pieces. Cut the stalks on a diagonal to increase the surface area for better flavor absorption.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: A large skillet or wok will allow the bok choy to cook evenly without overcrowding.
  • Heat the oil over high heat: High heat will help to sear the bok choy and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Add garlic and ginger: Garlic and ginger are classic Chinese flavors that pair well with bok choy. Add them to the hot oil and cook until fragrant.
  • Add bok choy and stir-fry: Add the bok choy to the skillet or wok and stir-fry until it is tender-crisp, about 2-3 minutes.
  • Add sauce: Add your desired sauce to the bok choy and stir to coat. You can use a simple soy sauce-based sauce or a more complex sauce with additional ingredients like oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, or rice vinegar.
  • Serve immediately: Bok choy is best served immediately after cooking. It can be served as a side dish or as a main course with rice or noodles.

Conclusion:
