One of the things I like to keep in my freezer is pre-grated ginger. When you buy some for a recipe, usually you only need a tablespoon or two and not a whole hand's worth. If you go ahead and grate up the whole hand (a food processor is great here) and put the grated ginger in a zip-top bag in the freezer, you can pull out a small chunk as needed.
Stirfry Snap Peas with Water Chestnuts
Makes 4 servings
1 lb. snap peas
1 tbsp canola oil
1 tsp grated fresh ginger
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 8 oz. can sliced water chestnuts, drained
3 tbsp soy sauce
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
1/4 tsp pepper
3 tbsp gin (optional)
To prep-ahead: combine the garlic and ginger in a small container. Combine the soy sauce, brown sugar, sesame oil, pepper and gin in another container.
