Ingredients

• 400 grams large shrimp (peeled and deveined)
• 5 pieces celery stalks
• 3 pieces garlic cloves (minced)
• 1 teaspoon ginger (grated)
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon sesame oil
• 1 teaspoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon ground white pepper

Directions

Step 1

Rinse the shrimp thoroughly under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

Step 2

Slice the celery stalks diagonally into thin pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.

Step 3

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water. Stir until smooth and set aside.

Step 4

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.

Step 5

Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic.

Step 6

Add the shrimp to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until they turn pink and are just cooked through. Remove the shrimp and set aside.

Step 7

In the same skillet, add the sliced celery and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until it is tender-crisp.

Step 8

Return the cooked shrimp to the skillet with the celery and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir well to coat everything evenly.

Step 9

Season with salt and ground white pepper. Stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is evenly coated.

Step 10

Remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish. Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles if desired.
