instructions

Cook Along

1 Cook the rice

In a small pot, combine the rice, a big pinch of salt, and 1 cup of water. Heat to boiling on high. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low. Cover and cook, without stirring, 13 to 15 minutes, or until the water has been absorbed and the rice is tender. Turn off the heat and fluff with a fork.

2 Prepare the ingredients & make the sauce

Meanwhile, wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice the mushrooms. Cut off and discard the root ends of the bok choy; keeping them separate, thinly slice the stems and roughly chop the leaves. Peel and roughly chop 2 cloves of garlic. Peel the ginger; finely chop to get 2 teaspoons (you may have extra). In a separate bowl, combine the cumin-Sichuan sauce, soy glaze, vinegar, and 1 tablespoon of water. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired.

3 Cook the vegetables

In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat 2 teaspoons of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the sliced mushrooms in an even layer. Cook, without stirring, 3 to 4 minutes, or until lightly browned. Add the sliced bok choy stems; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes, or until softened. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan.

4 Start the stir-fry

Pat the shrimp dry with paper towels (remove the tails, if desired). In the same pan, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the prepared shrimp, chopped garlic, and chopped ginger; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, 3 to 4 minutes, or until the shrimp are slightly opaque.

5 Finish the stir-fry & serve your dish

To the pan, add the cooked vegetables, chopped bok choy leaves, and sauce. Cook, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until thoroughly combined and the shrimp are opaque and cooked through. Turn off the heat. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Serve the finished stir-fry (including any sauce from the pan) over the cooked rice. Garnish with the sesame seeds. Enjoy!
