Sauteed Snow Pea Sprouts with Fresh and Dried Scallops

This is an amazing side dish for any meal. It costs a little fortune when you order it at a top Chinese restaurant. You can cook it at home in a few simple steps and the result is just as delicious.



These delicate tender snow pea sprout shoots (not the type that sell in a salad pack, but the actual snow pea leaves including the the curly shoot tips) have an amazing sweet flavour and I highly recommend it.


Preparation Time: 10 minutes
Cooking Time: 5 minutes
Makes: 4 servings



Ingredients
500g fresh snow pea sprout shoots
2 dried scallops
2 fresh sashimi-grade scallops
100ml pork stock
2 garlic cloves
30ml cooking wine
1 tablespoon of cooking oil
Salt and pepper to season

Method
  • Soak the dried scallop in a bowl of water until softened. Pat dry.
  • Wash the snow pea sprouts thoroughly. Drain and dry.
  • Heat oil in pan on high heat until smoking.
  • Add one dry scallop into the pan and fry the scallop shreds until crispy.
  • Remove and set aside.
  • In the same smoking pan, add the garlic cloves and snow pea sprouts.



  • Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add a dash of cooking wine and then the pork stock.
  • Stir and mix well.

  • Tip: snow pea sprouts are usually young and tender and they don't need much exposure to heat to get them cooked.

  • Add in the large plump fresh scallops in the final minutes.



  • Finely shredded the other dry scallop and add them to the pan.
  • Do not cover the pan, or you will lose the lush green vibrancy.
  • Transfer to a serving plate.



  • Garnish with the golden crispy fried scallop shreds on top.
  • Serve immediately.



  • This is a beautiful dish that combines the fresh and dried scallops to deliver a delectable taste.
