Stir fry celery with scallops


I happened to have some celery in my fridge so I decided to combine it with scallops to make a stir fry. My favourite scallops go well with anything. :)


Ingredients
Approx. 15 scallops
3 celery sticks (cut into slices)
some chopped carrot slices
chopped garlic
1 Tbsp oyster sauce
salt
pepper

Recipe
1. Season the scallops with salt and pepper then pat dry with kitchen towel.
2. In a heated pan with oil, add in the scallops in a clockwise direction. Let it cook for 2 minutes till you see the juice oozing and slightly turning brown then flip over to the other side and let it cook for another 2 minutes. Remove from the pan both the scallops and the juice. Do NOT discard the juice.
3. In the wok, heat up the oil and add in chopped garlic. When the garlic is fragrant, add in the carrot and celery to stir fry. As you can see the celery is sliced thin, there is no need to cook too long as we do not want to lose the crispy texture.
4. Add in oyster sauce and stir fry to mix before adding the cooked scallops and the juice. Again the scallops are already cooked, we just want to give it a good mix. (Taste test the sauce, it might get a bit salty cuz of the natural salt in the scallop juices. You can dilute with a little water if you like.)Remove from the wok and serve.
