Cooking instruction summary:

InstructionsHeat the cooking oil in a frying pan or wok. Add the carrot and chayote. Saute for about a minute. Pour in the wine. Boil uncovered until the wine is reduced to almost nothing and the vegetables are cooked through but not mushy. Depending on the age of the vegetables (younger ones are more tender and cook faster), this stage takes anywhere from five to 10 minutes.If the wine dries up before the vegetables are done, add half a cup of water and continue boiling until quite dry. Don’t worry about the “dry” state — the shrimps will render their natural juices so you still get a nice amount of sauce.When the vegetables are done, add the shrimps, the garlic, ginger and chilis. Stir fry over very high heat just until the shrimps change color. Turn off the heat. Season with salt. Transfer the cooked dish to a serving plate. Garnish with fine slivers of green onion. Serve at once.

Food Joke

Two foreign nuns have just arrived in the USA by boat and one says to the other, "I hear that the people of this country actually eat dogs." "Odd," her companion replies, "but if we shall live in America, we might as well do as the Americans do." Nodding emphatically, the Mother Superior points to a hot dog vendor and they both walk towards the cart. "Two dogs, please," she says. The vendor is only too pleased to oblige and he wraps both hot dogs in foil and hands them over the counter. Excited, the nuns hurry over to a bench and begin to unwrap their "dogs." The Mother Superior is first to open hers. She begins to blush and then, staring at it for a moment, leans over to the other nun and whispers cautiously, "What part did you get?"
