Ingredients:
3/4 pound edible-pod peas |
3 tablespoons oyster or soy sauce |
2 tablespoons cornstarch |
4 teaspoons rice vinegar |
2 cups fat-skimmed chicken broth |
2 teaspoons salad oil |
2 tablespoons minced fresh ginger |
4 cloves garlic, peeled and minced |
2 or 3 small dried hot chilies |
1 pound thawed frozen peeled, deveined shrimp (41 to 50 per lb.), rinsed and drained |
6 cups hot cooked rice |
3 tablespoons coarsely chopped salted roasted peanuts (optional) |
salt |
Directions:
1. Rinse peas, drain, and discard stem ends and strings. 2. In a small bowl, blend oyster sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, and broth. 3. Set a 14-inch wok or 12-inch frying pan over high heat. When pan is hot, add 3 tablespoons water and peas. Cover and stir often until peas are bright green and barely tender to bite, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain peas into a bowl. 4. Return wok to high heat. When pan is hot, add oil, ginger, garlic, and chilies; stir until chilies begin to brown, about 1 minute. Add shrimp and stir frequently until they are barely opaque in thickest part (cut to test), 3 to 4 minutes. 5. Add broth mixture; stir until boiling. Mix in peas. Scoop rice into bowls and spoon the shrimp mixture equally onto each portion. Sprinkle with peanuts and salt to taste. |
