Notes
- Prep ahead: Cut the vegetables and measure everything beforehand. The recipe moves fairly quickly once you start to cook, so being prepared really helps!
- Time your veggies: Cook hearty vegetables (like carrots and celery) first. We want tender crisp veggies, so be careful not to over cook. Add delicate vegetables (like bean sprouts and baby bok choy) later on.
- Blanche: Blanching the carrots and snow peas for 2-3 minutes in boiling water will allow them to keep their vibrant colors. After removing the vegetables from the blanching water, run them under cold water to stop any futher cooking. This step is optional.
- Save some time: You can buy a precut vegetable stir fry mixture to make the recipe even quicker.
- Cut evenly: To ensure they cook quickly and evenly, cut your vegetables thinly and of a similar size.
- Watch the shrimp: Shrimp is quite easy to overcook. As soon as it changes color, you are ready to remove it from the the heat and serve!
- Give the sauce another whisk: The cornstarch will settle to the bottom of the bowl while it sits. Be sure to whisk the sauce thoroughly before pouring it into the pan.
- Sauce consistency: If necessary, adjust the sauce consistency by adding more liquid or more cornstarch.
