Napa Cabbage with Dried Shrimp Recipe

Name: Napa Cabbage with Dried Shrimp
Prep time: 20 min
Cook time: 38 min
Total time: 95 min
Yield: 4 servings
Cuisine: Chinese
Ingredients: 2 tbsp Dried Shrimp; 3/4 cup Boiling Water; 1 head Napa Cabbage; 2 tbsp Peanut Oil; 4 Scallions; 1 tbsp Ginger; 1 tbsp Soy Sauce; 1 tbsp Water; 2 tsp Cornstarch; 1 tsp Kosher Salt; 1/2 tsp Pepper

This dish brings together tender napa cabbage with the concentrated, salty depth of dried shrimp. The shrimp rehydrates in boiling water, then gets quickly stir-fried with scallions and ginger before the cabbage is added in stages. A cornstarch slurry brings it all together into a light, glossy sauce. If you prefer a vegetarian version, swap the dried shrimp for rehydrated shiitake mushrooms, thinly sliced.
