(Chinese Bacon + Chinese Sausage)
Serves 4 to 6
- Chinese sausage
- Chinese bacon
- Onions
- Snow peas
- Ginger
- Minced garlic
- Shaoxing wine (or any cooking wine)
- White pepper
- Sesame oil
- Salt
- Slice the sausage and bacon into about ¼ inch thick and at an angle so that you get longer pieces.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok over medium low heat. Cook the ginger slices and garlic for 20 seconds.
- Add the Chinese sausage and Chinese bacon. Increase the heat to medium, and cook for a minute or two until the fat in the sausage turns translucent.
- Drain off the excess fat. Leave a good amount of fat in the pan to saute the onions and snow peas.
- Add the onions and stir fry for another 30 seconds.
- Add the snow peas. Mix everything well. Add the Shaoxing wine, white pepper, sesame oil, and salt. Stir-fry everything for 1-2 more minutes. If the stir fry is too dry, add 1 tablespoon of water.
- When the snow peas are bright green but still have a little bit of crunch, the dish is done.
