Chef's tip
Coconut aminos are sweeter and less salty; taste and adjust the seasoning.
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tbsp shaoxing wine or dry sherry
1 tsp cornstarch
1 tsp sugar
1 ½ tsp freshly ground black pepper
Ingredient note
Black pepper can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/8 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid black pepper, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
¼ cup low-sodium chicken broth

For the stir-fry

2 tbsp neutral oil, divided (such as canola oil or vegetable oil)
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
Ingredient note
Fresh ginger can trigger interstitial cystitis symptoms in some people, but the small amount in this recipe (~3/4 tsp per serving) is likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid fresh ginger, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
8 oz snow peas, strings removed
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
3 scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
Ingredient note
Interstitial cystitis flags onions and the allium family as common bladder irritants, especially raw, but scallions are milder and this recipe uses only about 3/4 scallion per serving, so they are likely tolerated by many. If you prefer to always avoid scallions, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
