Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Peel and devein shrimp and combine with cornstarch.
  2. In food processor chop garlic and ginger.
  3. Cut green onions into 1 inch lengths, add to food processor and pulse 4-6 times until finely chopped and mixed. Stir in red pepper flakes. Reserve.
  4. In a separate bowl, stir together rice wine, soy sauce, sugar, salt, ketchup, chili paste and sesame oil. Reserve.
  5. Julienne the bamboo shoots and add to a new bowl with the peas. Yes, this recipe requires some prep time, but well worth it!
  6. Heat a wok or large deep skillet. Add oil and heat to frying temperature, around 400 F if you have an oil themometer, which I don't.
  7. Add shrimp and stir gently 2-3 minutes until almost cooked through. Remove the shrimp to a separate bowl and discard all but 2 Tbsp of the oil.
  8. Add garlic/ginger/green onion mixture and stir fry 30 seconds until fragrant. Add bamboo shoots and peas and stir to coat.
  9. Add sauce mix and bring to a boil, then add the shrimp and heat through.
  10. Serve over rice and enjoy.
