Shrimp And Snow Pea Stir-Fry In Ginger Sauce
Yield: 4 Servings
Ingredients
1 c basmati rice; uncooked
2 tb mirin rice vinegar
1 tb low-sodium soy sauce
1 tb arrowroot or cornstarch
1 tb creamy peanut butter
2 tb fresh ginger; grated
2 cloves garlic; minced
1/2 lb snow peas
1/4 lb fresh shiitake mushrooms
4 green onions
1 tb dark sesame oil
1 lb raw shrimp; peeled
1/4 c fresh cilantro; minced
Instructions
*SHRIMP:If you purchase unpeeled raw shrimp or prawns, break away the
shells and cut a shallow slit along the back so you can remove the dark
vein.
In a medium saucepan, bring 2 cups water to a boil over high heat. Stir in
rice, reduce heat to low, cover and cook 25 minutes.
Meanwhile, whisk 1/2 cup water with mirin, soy sauce, and arrowroot powder,
then whisk in peanut butter, ginger and garlic. Set aside. String snow peas
and cut in half crosswise. Carefully wash mushrooms and thickly slice them.
Cut green onions into 1-inch pieces, including some green tops. Heat oil in
wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and add peas, mushrooms and
onions. Cook for 4 minutes, stirring frequently. Add ginger peanut sauce
and shrimp. Stir and cook 4 to 5 minutes until all shrimp have turned
bright pink. Stir in cilantro. Divide rice equally among warmed individual
serving plates. Spoon hot shrimp mixture over top and serve immediately.
