Ingredients:

1 Pound of shrimp

soy sauce

vinegar

sugar

cornstarch

sesame oil

snow peas
garlic and ginger
salt and pepper

water chestnuts (optional)

stock mixture - 1 cup

Combine chicken stock, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, cornstarch and sesame oil in small bowl; mix well and set aside. In large skillet or wok, heat oil over medium-high heat; add garlic and ginger and sauté until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add shrimp and sauté until pink, about 3 more minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Add snow peas and water chestnuts; sauté 3 minutes. Add stock mixture. Bring to a boil, reduce heat to a simmer, and cook until liquid has thickened and is no longer cloudy, about 3 more minutes. Sprinkle with lemon juice.

Tofu

Fresh tofu is my preference.  Cut and saute in vegetable oil. Add the Mabo Tofu Ready made sauce from Ranch Market. Chop up green onions and add to the wok. Mix it and serve on a bed of rice.
