SHRIMP AND BELL PEPPER STIR FRY

Steps:

• In a bowl or measuring cup, mix together the soy sauce, cornstarch, sugar, rice wine vinegar, ginger and crushed red pepper flakes.
• Heat the oil in a large high-sided skillet or wok over high heat. Add the bell peppers and stir until browned, 1 to 2 minutes. Scoot the peppers to the edge of the pan, creating an opening in the center.
• Add the shrimp in a single layer to the center of the pan and cook until just beginning to turn pink, 1 to 2 minutes. Add three-quarters of your scallions (hold back the rest for garnishing at the end) and stir everything together.
• Add the kale and cook until wilted, about 2 minutes. Next, pour in the sauce and allow it to bubble and thicken in the pan while stirring, about 1 minute. The sauce should really cling to the shrimp and vegetables. Remove from the heat.
• Sprinkle everything with the cilantro and mint and stir to combine. Garnish with more red pepper flakes and the remaining scallions before serving.

SPICY SQUID STIR FRY (爆炒鱿鱼)

Steps:

• If using squid tube: Use a knife or a pair of scissors to cut along one side of the tube. Open the tube to lay it flat, inner side up. Score the inner flesh of the tube, first parallel to the edge, then rotate the tube and slice to create an "X" shaped pattern, spaced about 1/4" (4 mm) in between. Cut the tube in half lengthwise, then slice into 1" (2.5 cm) strips.
• To marinate the squid: add the squid into a big bowl along with the Shaoxing wine and salt. Stir to mix well and set aside while preparing the rest of the ingredients.
• To make the sauce: Combine the sauce ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and stir to mix well.
• To cook the stir fry: Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Add the squid. Let cook for 1 minute, until the bottom turns slightly golden. Stir and cook until the squid just curls up. Transfer the squid to a big plate and set aside.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil, garlic, and ginger. Stir a few times to release the fragrance.
• Add the onion and bell pepper. Cook and stir fry for 1 minute. Add back the squid. Stir the sauce again to dissolve the cornstarch completely, then pour it into the pan. Cook and stir until the sauce is thickened, 1 minute or so. Transfer everything to a big plate. Serve hot as a main dish.
