ingredients
1 pound fresh snow peas, trimmed
1 pound chicken livers, trimmed
3 tablespoons soy sauce
2 tablespoons rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons cornstarch (cornflour)
1 teaspoon sugar
2 tablespoons peanut or vegetable oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh ginger root
4 scallions (spring onions), green and white parts, cut into 1-inch pieces
salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
directions
Drop the snow peas into boiling salted water and cook for 30 seconds. Drain and rinse (they should be bright green) and set aside.
Combine the chicken livers, soy sauce, rice wine, cornstarch, and sugar in a small bowl and toss to combine thoroughly.
Heat the oil in a wok or large heavy skillet over high heat. Add the ginger and scallions and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the chicken livers and stir-fry until they are firm and brown, 4 to 5 minutes.
Add the snow peas and stir-fry just until they are heated through, about 1 minute. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper.
You can use one of the commercially prepared Chinese five-spice powders in this dish if you like, but the mixture of spices in this recipe will give the dish a brighter, more distinctive flavor.

Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
