Oriental Sesame Celery

Oriental Sesame Celery

Ingredients:
4 stalks celery
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
2 tsp. sake
Pinch of Splenda
4 tsp. soy sauce
2 Tbsp. sesame seeds, lightly toasted and crushed
ground dried chili peppers
String the celery (no you don’t have to but it makes a better dish!) and cut each piece
into 2-inch segments. Cut each segment into lengthwise 1/4-inch strips.
Heat the oil in a frying pan over high heat and add the celery. Stir fry until just tender,
about 1 minute. Add the sake and Splenda and stir until the liquid has evaporated. Add
the soy sauce and stir until the liquid is almost gone. Stir in chili pepper to taste.
Transfer to a dish and sprinkle with the sesame seeds.
