First, wash and trim the snow peas. Dump them in boiling water for about 5 seconds or so, then run cold water of them to stop them from cooking. (This step, blanching, is usually required when stir-frying snow peas.) Heat some oil in a wok or heavy skillet, and toss in some minced garlic and some shredded ginger. (How much, you ask? Enough to make the food taste right, I answer. I like lots and lots.) Stir-fry them a bit, then toss in the snow peas. Stir-fry until the peas turn bright green. Sprinkle a bit of hot oil on, mix it all up, and serve.
