Sausage and snow peas is a quick, flavorful dish that’s perfect for busy weeknights. Combining savory sausage with crisp, sweet snow peas, it’s versatile and easy to customize. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making it delicious every time.

Ingredients:

- 200g sausage (smoked or Italian, sliced or diced)

- 300g snow peas, trimmed and strings removed

- 2 cloves garlic, minced

- 1 tbsp soy sauce

- 1 tsp oyster sauce (optional, for umami)

- 1 tsp sesame oil

- Salt and pepper to taste

- 1 tbsp cooking oil

Instructions:

1. Cook the Sausage: Heat oil in a wok or large skillet over medium heat. Add sausage and cook until browned (3-4 minutes). Remove and set aside.

2. Stir-Fry Aromatics: In the same pan, sauté garlic until fragrant (30 seconds). Add snow peas and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender.

3. Combine and Season: Return sausage to the pan. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Toss well to coat. Season with salt and pepper.

4. Serve: Cook for 1 more minute. Transfer to a plate and enjoy hot with rice or noodles.

Tips:

- For extra color, add sliced bell peppers or carrots.

- Use low-sodium soy sauce if preferred.

- Overcooking snow peas will make them mushy—keep them bright and crunchy!

This dish takes under 15 minutes to prepare, making it a go-to for a healthy, satisfying meal. Enjoy the perfect blend of smoky, savory, and fresh flavors!
