1 cup carrots, sliced 1/4"
1 cup celery, sliced 1/4" thick on the bias

2 cups chicken stock, fish stock or clam broth
4 cups cooked white rice
Directions:
Peel and cut vegetables. In a wok or heavy saute pan heat oil until smoke hot. Add vegetables and cook for 3 minutes turning gently to keep from burning.

Remove and serve over white rice.
Extra Tips
Firmer fish fillets work best (bass)
leaving skin on fillets helps keep the fish pieces intact
The vegetables look and cook best if sliced Chinese style or on the bias
This is an easy campfire dish when made in a heavy iron pan. The hotter the fire the better.
