CHINESE VEGETABLE STIR FRY



Chinese Vegetable Stir Fry image

My daughter found this on ABCNEWS.com and has made it several times now. Sometimes we are missing an ingredient the recipe calls for so we just add something different. We use a 4 ounce can of sliced mushrooms instead of the shitake. We also use frozen broccoli and snow peas to speed this recipe up.

CHINESE OMELET WITH STIR-FRIED VEGETABLES IN SPICY SAUCE



Chinese Omelet With Stir-Fried Vegetables In Spicy Sauce image

Provided by Marialisa Calta

Categories     appetizer

Time 15m

Yield Six servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

1/2 cup chicken broth
2 1/2 tablespoons light soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine or sake
1 1/4 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon Chinese black vinegar or 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon corn or safflower oil
2 tablespoons minced scallions, white part only
1 tablespoon minced ginger root
1 1/2 tablespoons minced garlic
3 tablespoons corn or safflower oil
1 red bell pepper, julienned, about 3/4 cup
3/4 cup julienned snow peas, about 2 1/2 ounces
2 teaspoons rice wine or sake, approximately (optional)
1 cup mung bean sprouts, rinsed and drained
8 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 tablespoons minced scallion greens, for garnish

Steps:

  • In a small mixing bowl, combine the ingredients for the spicy sauce except the corn (or safflower) oil, scallions, ginger root, and garlic. Heat the corn oil in a saute pan or wok. Add the scallions, ginger root and garlic and stir-fry over high heat, about 15 seconds, until fragrant. Add the combined sauce mixture and stir until thickened. Keep warm until ready to serve.
  • To make the omelet, in a saute pan or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of the corn (or safflower) oil until hot. Add the bell pepper and snow peas and toss lightly over high heat, about 30 seconds, adding some rice wine or sake if the mixture is very dry. Add the bean sprouts and toss briefly, about 10 seconds. Remove the mixture and let cool slightly, then fold into the beaten eggs.
  • Heat a large, well-seasoned omelet pan or wok and add the remaining 2 tablespoons of the corn oil. Heat until very hot. Add the eggmixture and let it set at the bottom while twirling the pan. When a thin crust begins to form, cover and reduce the heat to low. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes, or until the omelet is puffed and lightly golden on the bottom. Using a spatula, carefully turn it over and cook until lightly golden and cooked through. (The omelet can be done ahead of time and kept warm in a 200-degree preheated oven.) When ready to serve, cut the omelet into wedges, spoon the sauce over them and sprinkle with the scallion greens.

4 tablespoons peanut oil or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
1 tablespoon minced garlic
1/4 teaspoon crushed red chili flakes
1/2 red onion, trimmed and cut into 4 wedges, layers separated
2 heads baby bok choy, trimmed, cut lengthwise in quarters
1/4 pound Chinese broccoli, stems and leaves separated, each cut into 1-inch pieces

  • Transfer the stir-fried vegetables to a heated serving dish. Garnish with the sliced scallions and sesame seeds and serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. Fresh vegetables, eggs, and a good-quality sauce will make a big difference in the flavor of your omelet.
  • Don't overcook the vegetables. They should be tender-crisp, not mushy.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan. If you do, the vegetables will steam instead of stir-frying.
  • Be careful when adding the eggs. You don't want to scramble them; you want to create a thin omelet that wraps around the vegetables.
  • Don't overcook the omelet. It should be cooked through, but still slightly runny in the center.
  • Serve the omelet immediately. It's best when it's hot and fresh.

Conclusion:

This Chinese omelet with stir-fried vegetables in spicy sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner.
