Marinate scallops for 1 hr. in egg white, salt,

When hot, add 3 cups oil. When it's just beginning to
smoke, add scallops, stirring so they separate. After
1-2 minutes, drain them through colander, reserving
2-3 tbs. oil. Return reserved oil to wok, add all
vegetables, stir-frying or flipping the wok 2-3
minutes. Drain again, reserving 1 tbs. oil. Again,
return reserved oil to wok. Stir-fry garlic & ginger
several seconds & add chicken broth, dry sherry, salt,
pepper & cornstarch mixture. When it thickens, return
scallops & vegetables to wok & allow them to become
hot. Serve.
Note: Make sure all sand is removed from scallops so
they are not gritty. Make certain cooking oil is fresh
so scallops remain white.
