Fresh, crispy and sweet snow peas are really ideal for a quick stirfry. You can also add protein (chicken, prawn, egg or tempeh) to this simple dish. It’s easy to prepare and ready within 15 minutes. Just simply shred the trimmed snow peas and toss with chilli and ginger for maximum flavour and crunch.
Snow peas, aka Chinese pea pods, are young and flat with very small peas inside (different from rounded snap peas) and typically available all year-round, but the peak season is spring through early winter. As their name implies, snow peas can survive frost and snow.
