SHRIMP AND VEGETABLE SAUTE, CHINESE STYLE

Steps:

• Whisk anchovy paste, soy sauce, sugar, broth and season with red pepper flakes. In a large skillet or wok, heat the vegetable and sesame oils. Add peppers and scallion whites and stir fry or saute, stirring continuously for one minute. Add shrimp and saute for another minute. Add garlic and saute for 15 seconds until you get a good whiff of its aroma.
• Add liquid ingredients and peas, half of mint and basil leaves and simmer for a minute or two just until the shrimp are cooked through and the vegetables are tender but still crisp.
• Taste and season and transfer to a bowl; serve over rice, garnish with remaining mint, basil and green scallions rounds.

KUNG PAO SHRIMP

Steps:

• Mix the shrimp, Shaoxing wine, 1 teaspoon cornstarch and a pinch of salt in a bowl until the shrimp are evenly coated. Let stand while you prepare the other ingredients.
• Stir the sugar, soy sauce, vinegar, Sichuan pepper and remaining teaspoon cornstarch in a separate bowl. Dice the bell pepper and thinly slice the garlic. Have all your ingredients ready next to the stove.
• Heat the oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat for 15 seconds. Add the peanuts and stir until browned in spots, 30 to 60 seconds. Add the bell pepper and garlic, and sprinkle with salt. Cook, stirring, until the pepper is bright and the garlic starts to become translucent, about 30 seconds. Add the chiles and stir well, then add the shrimp with its marinade. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the shrimp are curled and just opaque, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Add the scallions and stir until glossy, about 15 seconds, then add the sauce. Cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and coats everything evenly, about 1 minute. If any of the starchy sauce has stuck to the bottom of the pan, add a splash of water and scrape up any browned bits. Taste and add more Sichuan pepper if you'd like. Immediately transfer to a dish and serve hot.
