Instructions
- In a bowl, combine soy sauce, water, oyster sauce, Chinese cooking wine, cornstarch, sugar, and pepper. Stir until cornstarch is dissolved. Set aside.
- In a wok or wide pan over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon of oil. Add snow peas and cook for about 10 seconds. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
- Add carrots and celery to pan and cook for about 30 seconds or until half done. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
- Add another tablespoon of oil to the pan, if needed. Add shrimp and cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or just until the color changes to pink. Remove from pan and drain on paper towels.
- Wipe down wok as needed. Add 1 tablespoon oil. Add onions and garlic and cook until softened.
- Stir stir-fry sauce mixture to disperse cornstarch and add to wok. Bring to a boil.
- When it begins to thicken, add shrimp, quail eggs, celery, carrots, and snow peas. Continue to cook for about 2 to 3 minutes or until heated through.
- Serve hot.
Notes
- Have your mise en place set up ahead of time. Since stir-fries are typically cooked quickly, it’s important to have the vegetables, shrimp, and other ingredients washed, cut, and ready to be added to the hot wok.
- Use a wok for best results; its unique design allows even heating and easy distribution of ingredients. If you don't have one, you can also use a wide pan with slanted sides to allow room for ingredients to have contact with the heated surface and move around without spilling.
