For the Sauce:

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Abalone:
• For easier preparation, use a 10pc Vacuum pack or can, these abalone are precooked and will only need to be heated through.
• If using live abalone, prepare and clean them thoroughly. Abalone can be tough, so tenderizing methods such as pounding, or pressure cooking may be needed depending on their size and quality.
2. Make the Sauce:
• In a small bowl, whisk together the oyster sauce, sweet chili sauce, and cornstarch (if using). Set aside.
3. Stir Fry:
• Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
• For Live Abalone: add the abalone and stir fry for about 2-3 minutes until lightly browned and cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
4. Cook Vegetables:
• In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil.
• Add the sliced onion and carrot. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until they start to soften.
• Add the broccoli florets and baby corn halves to the skillet.
• Continue to stir fry for another 3-4 minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.
5. Add Precooked Abalone:
• Add the Vacuum packed or canned abalone.
• Stir fry for 2-3 minutes or until they are heated through.
6. Combine Everything:
• Return the cooked abalone to the skillet with the vegetables.
• Pour the sauce over everything in the skillet.
7. Finish and Serve:
• Stir everything together gently until the sauce coats all the ingredients and thickens slightly.
• Remove from heat and serve the stir fry immediately over steamed rice.
8. Garnish (optional):
• You can garnish with sesame seeds, chopped green onions, or fresh cilantro for added flavour and presentation.
