Peel and boil the winter bamboo shoots in salted water until tender. Turn off the heat and let it completely cool down in the water.
Slice the cooked bamboo shoots and stir-fry over a medium high heat.
Add the onion, garlic and carrot and stir-fry continuously for 2-3 minutes.
Season with soy sauce, sugar, salt, and a good pinch of ground white pepper before adding the chicken stock and cook for 2-3 minutes.
Add starch to thicken the sauce enough to cling lightly to the vegetables. Adjust the seasoning with the sesame oil and serve right away.
- You can replace fresh bamboo with canned shoots.
