SUGAR SNAP-GINGER STIR-FRY

I was making an Asian dinner and needed a different flavor to complement my other dishes. Using ginger gave this dish just what I wanted and used one of my favorite vegetables, sugar snap peas. You can vary the ginger depending on how strong a flavor you want.

STIR-FRIED BEEF AND SUGAR SNAP PEAS

Here's a stir-fry far better than most take-out Chinese, and you can make it with any lean cut of meat - flank steak, London broil, tenderloin, sirloin or skirt steak - so long as it is cut thin against the grain. Most takeout joints use snow peas, but sugar snaps are juicier and more succulent, and just as crunchy. (Their downside is that they are slightly more work: they need to be thinly sliced.) As for the sauce, it's simple: thick dark soy sauce (tamari works well), sesame oil, chicken broth and Madeira.
