Stir-Fried Mixed Vegetables  

Posted by: Julia in

Ingredients :
  • 100 grammes sugar snap peas (about 20 pieces, remove tip and fibre which runs across the pod)
  • 8 pieces of baby corn (sliced lengthwise to quarters)
  • Carrots (sliced - amount to your desire)
  • 5 pieces chinese dried mushrooms (pre-soaked till soft)
  • 3 cloves garlic (chopped)
  • 1 tablespoon cooking oil (palm oil preferred)
  • 30 ml of water or more
  • Corn starch (prepared using 1 tablespoon of corn flour mixed with 5 tablespoons of water)
Seasoning :
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • salt to taste
  • a couple of dashes of white pepper powder
  • 2 teaspoons chinese cooking wine
Directions :
  1. Heat oil in wok and stir fry the garlic together with the mushrooms till garlic begins to brown.
  2. Add baby corn and carrots and continue to stir fry for another 30 seconds while adding 1 to 2 tablespoons of water.
    Add seasoning and semi-cover vegetables with warm water and close lid to allow vegetables to cook. Periodically check for drying out. After about 1 1/2 minutes or when gravy almost dried out, add sugar snap peas and another 3 tablespoons of water, stir well and close lid again. Sugar snap peas are done when the pod is breaking and has turned darker green in colour. Add a little bit of corn starch is gravy is too runny for your liking.
  3. Serve hot with white rice.
