• Add the broccoli pieces and baby corn; cook for 1 minute. Add the red and green pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high; cook and stir for about 10 minutes.

NOBLE HOUSE GOVERNOR'S CHICKEN

Steps:

• Cut the chicken into 3/4-inch cubes. Combine the cubes with the egg white, 2 tablespoons of water and 3 tablespoons of the cornstarch. Mix well.
• Heat the 2 cups oil in a wok or frying pan to 280F (medium to medium high heat), or put 1 piece of chicken in the oil and, when the bubbles rise from it like Champagne bubbles, add the rest of the chicken. Stir the chicken slowly and cook until the pink is no longer visible. Drain in a colander.
• Combine the bell peppers, scallions and ginger in a colander. Rinse in cold water. With a pair of scissors, cut the hot peppers lengthwise and then cut again widthwise, flaking the bits on top of the vegetables in the colander.
• Combine the soy sauce, sherry, garlic, sugar, salt, 2 tablespoons of cold water, and the remaining 1 tablespoon cornstarch. Mix well.
• Heat the 3 teaspoons oil in a wok until smoking. Stir-fry the vegetables for 5 minutes, or until bright in color. Add the chicken cubes and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Add the optional cocktail peanuts and toss 3 times.
• Restir the sauce and add it to the chicken and vegetables. Toss 5 times quickly and serve.

NOBLE HOUSE CRAB SHUMAI

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix the pork, scallions, ginger, mirin and salt. Gently fold in the crab meat.
• Dust a baking sheet with flour. Hold a gyoza wrapper in your palm, keeping the rest of the wrappers covered with plastic. Place about 1 1/2 tablespoons of the filling in the center of the wrapper and pinch the edges all around, forming an open cup. Transfer the dumpling to the baking sheet and cover. Repeat with the remaining wrappers and filling.
• Fill a wok with 1 1/2 inches of water and bring to a boil. Arrange the cabbage leaves on 2 tiers of a bamboo steamer so they overlap slightly. Add the dumplings to the steamer and stack the tiers. Cover and steam until the shumai are just cooked, 8 minutes. Serve hot.

NOBLE HOUSE CHINESE SPARERIBS

Steps:

• In a skillet, brown the spare ribs and garlic in oil, mashing the garlic in with a fork as it takes on color (remove garlic before it browns). Add salt, soy sauce, vinegar and water.
• Bring to a boil for 1 minute, reduce heat and simmer for 30 minutes or until tender. (If it's barbecue weather, simmer 15 minutes, then finish slowly on grill - basting frequently with liquid from pan).
• Stir sauce ingredients together and bring to a boil for 5 minutes. Toss with ribs before serving.
