Celery with Shrimp and Lily Bulb - a Cantonese Banquet Stir fry Recipe (西芹百合炒虾仁)
This dish it one of my personal favorite stir fries, celery with shrimp and lily bulb. It's a bit of a banquet dish, but's easy enough to make at home as well!
The key is to (1) peel your celery before stir-frying, which makes it much less stringy and (2) quickly passing you shrimp through oil before stir-frying.
If you're a vegetarian, you can skip the shrimp and use a nice Chinese vegetable stock (feel free to ask us how in the comments).
