Spicy Stir-Fried Snap Peas
- 1 lb. sugar snap peas
- 2 Tbsp. Soy Sauce
- 1 Tsp. Sesame Seed Oil
- 1 Tsp. Sriracha Sauce
- 2-3 slices Fresh Ginger Root
- 2 Lg. Garlic Cloves, sliced
- 1 Tbsp. Cooking Oil
- 1 Tsp. Black Sesame Seeds or Sesame Seeds for garnish (optional)
- 1. Remove the strings from the each sugar snap pea by snapping the stem end and pulling the string down the side, then slice each one on the diagonal.
- 2. Mix the soy sauce, sesame oil, and Sriracha sauce in a small bowl and set aside.
- 3. Put the wok or heavy frying pan on the burner and preheat. Once hot, add the oil and let it heat until the oil is shimmering (about 15-30 seconds, depending on how hot your stove gets.) Add the sliced ginger root and garlic and stir-fry just long enough so that they become fragrant and season the oil, then remove. (Be careful not to brown the ginger and garlic or they will have a bitter taste.)
- 4. Add the sliced sugar snap peas and cook over high heat, stirring constantly, until the peas turn bright green and are just starting to cook, about 2 minutes.
- 5. Pour in the sauce mixture and cook, stirring constantly, until the sauce just starts to coat the peas, about 1 minute more.
- 6. Serve hot, sprinkled with black sesame seeds or sesame seeds if desired.
