Directions

Step 1

Prepare the vegan shrimp according to package instructions. If they are frozen, thaw them completely before cooking.

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and water until smooth. Set aside.

Add the broccoli, red bell pepper, carrot, sugar snap peas, and baby corn to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes until they are vibrant and just tender.

Step 6

Remove the vegetables from the skillet and set aside.

Step 7

In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of sesame oil and add the vegan shrimp. Stir-fry them for 2-3 minutes until they are heated through and slightly crispy.

Step 8

Return the vegetables to the skillet with the vegan shrimp.

Step 9

Pour the sauce mixture over the shrimp and vegetables. Stir well to ensure everything is coated with the sauce.
