Stir Fried Snow Pea Leaves with Prawns

Stir Fried Snow Pea Leaves with Prawns
This is really just another variation of my Garlic Stir Fried Snow Pea Leaves. I had some and needed a very quick lunch. K really liked the prawns but I had to shovel it down quickly so he wouldn't be able to eat much. Not that I'm trying to starve my kid, but he's pretty sensitive to shellfish, so it's just best if he doesn't have too much of it.


Stir Fried Snow Pea Leaves with Prawns
(serves 4-6)

Ingredients:
  • 1 lb snow pea leaves, rinsed
  • 1/2 lb medium prawns, shelled & deveined
  • 1 red hot chili, finely diced
  • 2-4 ginger slices
  • 3-4 garlic cloves, minced
  • 2 Tbsps canola oil
  • Salt, to taste

Directions:
  1. Heat a wok over high heat until smoking hot. Add canola oil. Once the oil is shimmering, quickly drop in the ginger slices, garlic & chili. Cook until fragrant.
  2. Toss in prawns and cook until just starting to turn opaque.
  3. Add in the snow pea leaves, turning over as you add more. Keep turning and mixing until about 2/3 of the leaves are all wilted. Season with salt. Cover with lid and cook for 3-4 minutes or until all the leaves have wilted. 
  4. Serve with rice (and a protein side dish if you need more protein).
