1 tablespoon finely grated peeled fresh ginger
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice-wine vinegar
1 1/2 teaspoons toasted sesame oil
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 celery stalk, cut into thin half-moons
2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced
8 ounces snow peas, trimmed
6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stemmed, caps cut into thick strips
2 heads baby bok choy, cut lengthwise into 6 wedges
1 yellow bell pepper, cut into 1/4-inch-thick strips
3 scallions, cut into 2-inch matchsticks
2 ounces pea shoots (1 1/3 cups)
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Sesame seeds, toasted, for garnish
Crushed red-pepper flakes, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • Stir together ginger, soy sauce, vinegar, and sesame oil in a bowl; set aside.
  • Heat 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add celery and garlic; cook, stirring constantly, until just tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet; set aside.
  • Add 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil to wok. Add snow peas and mushrooms; cook until tender, about 4 minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet; set aside.
  • Reduce heat to medium-low; add 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil to wok. Add bok choy; cook, turning frequently, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer to the baking sheet; set aside.
  • Raise heat to medium-high. Add remaining 1 1/2 teaspoons vegetable oil to wok. Add bell pepper, and cook until tender, about 2 minutes. Add reserved soy-sauce mixture, and cook until reduced by half, about 2 minutes. Add reserved cooked vegetables to wok, and cook, tossing frequently, until vegetables are heated through, about 3 minutes.
  • Remove wok from heat; toss in scallions and pea shoots. Season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, and with red-pepper flakes, if desired.

Pea shoots are the tips of the vines and the top set of leaves of the pea plant. I was introduced to these by my BIL a couple of years ago. I found no recipes for it here or on line. Which lead me to add my recipe.
