Preparation

Step 1

Prepare rice according to package directions.

Heat oil in a medium pot. Add garlic and ginger root and cook about 30 seconds, stirring constantly. Stir in remaining vegetables and stir-fry slightly. Stir in base mixture and soy sauce. Place a cover on pan and let cook on high heat about 5 minutes, until vegetables are crisp tender. Remove cover and add shrimp. Bring to a boil and slowly stir in cornstarch mixture until sauce is thickened to your liking. You may want to add more or less than the recipe calls for. Sprinkle lemon juice over mixture and stir.

Spoon vegetable shrimp mixture over hot rice.
