2. Clean the shrimps and dry with paper towels, then place in the prepared zip lock bag with the cornstarch ingredients. Give it a shake so all the shrimps are well coated.
3. In a frying pan,add the peanut oil and over a high heat, heat the oil until it is sizzling hot. Then add the shrimp, cook until they just start turning pink, and turn so the other side of the shrimp are the same. Remove with a slotted spoon on to some kitchen paper.
4. Turn the heat down and transfer the garlic scallion mixture to the pan until the garlic is a golden colour. Be careful not to burn the garlic as this will result in a bitter taste. Then add the shrimp back to the pan with the garlic and toss until everything is combined.

1. In a small bowl, combine oyster sauce, soy sauce and cilantro and set aside.
2. Pat the shrimp very dry with paper towels. In a medium bowl, add shrimp and cornstarch and toss to coat.
3. In a wok or large saute pan over high heat, add half the cooking oil and swirl to coat the bottom of the pan. When the wok is very hot, add the shrimp in a single layer and cook partially until one side is nicely seared, about 1 minute. Flip and sear the other side of each shrimp, about one more minute. They don't need to be cooked all the way through yet. Remove them to a plate and set aside.
4. Turn the heat down to medium and let wok cool off a bit to prevent the aromatics from burning. Add the remaining cooking oil and add green onion, garlic and ginger and stir fry for a minute until fragrant. [If you are using other vegetables, like snow peas, add them to the wok now and stir fry for a minute or until the vegetables are bright in color and crisp-crunchy]
