To easily peel fresh ginger root, scrape off the skin with the edge of a metal spoon. If you use a lot of fresh ginger, it is easy to store in the freezer and grate on a microplane without having to peel. The addition of the bean sprouts gives this recipe great bits of crunch and a whimsical look.

STIR-FRIED SHRIMP WITH SNOW PEAS AND GINGER



Stir-Fried Shrimp With Snow Peas and Ginger image

In 2005, Julia Moskin wrote an excellent article about woks, the best sort for American kitchens (a 14-inch heavy-gauge carbon-steel wok with a flat bottom) and how to season it. This recipe, adapted from Grace Young's book, "The Breath of a Wok," ran alongside it. It is simple, fresh and fast. It cooks in under 5 minutes, so start your pot of rice as you clean the shrimp and chop the ginger, garlic and scallions.

Categories     dinner, easy, quick, weekday, main course

Time 30m

Yield 2 to 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon plus 1/4 teaspoon salt
1 pound large shrimp, peeled and deveined
1/3 cup chicken broth
2 teaspoons rice wine or dry sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 1/2 teaspoons cornstarch
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/8 teaspoon ground white pepper
1 tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons vegetable oil
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 teaspoon minced ginger
6 ounces snow peas, strings removed, washed and dried
1 scallion, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large bowl combine 2 cups cold water and 1 tablespoon salt, stirring until salt is dissolved. Add shrimp, and let stand five minutes. Rinse shrimp under cold running water, and set to dry on paper towels. With more towels, pat shrimp dry.
  • In a bowl, combine broth, wine, soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar and pepper.
  • Heat a wok over high heat. To test heat flick a few drops of water into wok. When water vaporizes within 2 seconds, wok is hot. Swirl in 1 tablespoon oil around sides of wok. Add shrimp, spreading them in a single layer, so they have contact with hot metal. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or just until pink, tossing them with a wok shovel or spatula. Add remaining 2 teaspoons oil, garlic and ginger, and stir-fry 5 seconds. Add snow peas and remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and stir-fry 1 minute more.
  • Stir cornstarch mixture, swirl it in around sides of wok, and bring to a boil. Stir-fry just until shrimp are cooked through and sauce has thickened, about 30 seconds more. Stir in scallions, and serve immediately.

STIR-FRIED SHRIMP WITH SNOW PEAS AND RED PEPPERS



Stir-Fried Shrimp With Snow Peas and Red Peppers image

This is not unlike the shrimp with snow peas you get in many Cantonese restaurants. But there are more vegetables in this version.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, one pot, main course

Time 30m

Yield Serves four

Number Of Ingredients 13

3/4 pound snow peas or sugar snap peas, strings and stems removed
2 teaspoons cornstarch
1 1/2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 teaspoon sugar
1 pound medium shrimp, shelled and deveined
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
2 tablespoons vegetable, peanut or canola oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh ginger
3 large garlic cloves, green shoots removed, minced
1 red bell pepper, cut into 1-inch squares
3 scallions, trimmed and cut into 1-inch lengths, dark green parts separated

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Fill a bowl with ice water. When the water comes to a boil, salt generously and add the snow peas or sugar snap peas. Boil 30 seconds, and transfer immediately to the ice water. Allow to cool for a few minutes, drain and set aside.
  • In a medium bowl, mix together 1 teaspoon of the corn starch, 1 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce, 1 teaspoon of the rice wine or sherry, 1 teaspoon of the sesame oil, and 1/2 teaspoon of the sugar. Add the shrimp, and stir together to coat.
  • Place the remaining corn starch, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, sesame oil and sugar in another bowl. Add the stock, and stir together well. Set aside.
  • Heat a large, heavy nonstick skillet or wok over high heat until a drop of water evaporates immediately upon contact. Add 1 tablespoon of the oil, and turn the heat to medium. Add the ginger and garlic, and stir together for about 20 seconds, then add the red pepper and the white and light green parts of the scallions. Stir-fry for two to three minutes, until the pepper begins to soften. Stir to the side of the pan. Add the remaining oil and the shrimp. Cook, stirring, for two minutes, stir in the snow peas or snap peas, and continue to stir-fry for another two or three minutes until the shrimp is pink and cooked through. Give the sauce a stir, and add it to the pan along with the dark green ends of the scallions. Stir everything together with the sauce until the shrimp and vegetables are lightly glazed. Serve hot, with rice.

Tips:

  • To save time, use pre-cooked shrimp or buy shrimp that has already been deveined and peeled.
  • If you don't have rice wine, you can substitute dry sherry or white wine.
  • If you like your food spicy, add a pinch of red pepper flakes or a chopped chili pepper to the sauce.
  • Serve the stir-fry over rice or noodles, or with a side of steamed vegetables.

Conclusion:

This stir-fried shrimp and snow peas dish is a quick and easy meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. It's packed with flavor and nutrients, and it's sure to please everyone at the table. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious meal, give this recipe a try.
