Sixi Scallop-Chinese Stir-Fry Scallop With Vegetables Recipe

This dish is one of my favorite lunar new year dishes. Its delicious, simple, super quick to make as well as really colorful. This dish is especially perfect when you have many dishes to prepare for your lunar new year banquet as you can make this dish really quickly. A great thing about this dish is you can easily get hold of all the ingredients in your local supermarket. You dont even need to go to asian or chinese supermarkets to buy any ingredients. The one exception is rice wine but dried sherry is a perfect substitute. Sixi in chinese language means four happiness or four lucky or joy, which also means a lot of happiness. So as you may be aware, chinese people love to serve dishes with lucky names or meanings in their banquets. So this is a really popular dish in chinese cuisine. In this recipe, i used carrots, red and yellow peppers as well as mangetout (snow peas). But as with many chinese dishes, you can always use other vegetables instead such as peas, green peppers, baby corn. Personally i like my dishes to be quite colorful so i will always recommend using vegetables that will make this dish more colorful, but this is entirely up to you. You can also adjust the amount of vegetables you use. I use quite a lot of vegetables in this dish but if you want you can cut down the amount of vegetables you use. You might want to adjust the amount of seasonings used as well to suit your personal preference.
