THREE PEA STIR-FRY


It may seem odd that we use frozen green peas, but, sadly, even the best fresh ones can taste starchy by the time they make it to the supermarket.
Active time: 30 min Start to finish: 30 min

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large garlic clove, minced
1 tablespoon finely chopped peeled fresh ginger
1/4 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
6 oz sugar snap peas, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
6 oz snow peas, trimmed and cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
1 cup frozen green peas
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon Asian sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted

Heat vegetable oil in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking, then stir-fry garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add sugar snaps and snow peas and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Add frozen peas and stir-fry until hot, about 2 minutes. Remove from heat, then stir in soy sauce and sesame oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and season with salt.

Makes 4 side-dish servings.
