Steps:
- Measure out, cut, and group together each section's ingredients: In a bowl, toss the lamb with its seasonings, including the cornstarch and wine, so it is thoroughly coated. Have the ginger and garlic ready to go into the wok, and have the onion, water chestnuts, and snow peas piled on a piece of paper towel, ready to go. In a small bowl, blend the sauce ingredients together. With this lineup, the stir-fry will easily come together in a few minutes.
- Set a 14- to 16-inch wok or a straight-sided 12-inch sauté pan over high heat. When it is hot, swirl in 1 1/2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil. Add the lamb and stir-fry for 90 seconds. Spread the lamb out as you cook it, so all its sides sear. Immediately remove the lamb to a clean bowl. Wipe out the wok with a thick wad of paper towels.
- Heat the wok again over high heat. Swirl in the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons oil. Sir in the ginger and the garlic, and stir until fragrant (few seconds), sprinkling with the salt. Immediately add the vegetables. Stir-fry for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Add the sauce mixture, and continue stir-frying for another 90 seconds.
- Turn the lamb into the wok, and stir-fry for about 10 seconds to heat it through. Stir in the cashews, and turn the mixture into a serving bowl. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose high-quality ingredients: Use fresh, flavorful ingredients for the best results. Look for tender lamb, crisp snow peas, and crunchy cashews.
- Marinate the lamb: Marinating the lamb in hoisin sauce and spices helps tenderize it and infuse it with flavor. Be sure to let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Use a hot wok: A hot wok is essential for getting a good sear on the lamb and vegetables. Preheat your wok over high heat before adding the oil.
- Stir-fry in batches: Don't overcrowd the wok, or the food will steam instead of stir-frying. Cook the lamb and vegetables in batches if necessary.
- Add the sauce at the end: Adding the sauce at the end of the cooking process helps prevent it from burning. Bring the sauce to a simmer in a separate pan before adding it to the wok.
- Serve immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately, while they are still hot and crispy. Garnish with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or scallions.
Conclusion:
This stir-fry of hoisin lamb with cashews and snow peas is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The lamb is tender and flavorful, the vegetables are crisp and colorful, and the sauce is rich and savory. With just a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can have a delicious and satisfying meal on the table.
