Julienne Prep
Cut the abalone, carrot, fresh bamboo shoots, green chili pepper, and soaked shiitake mushrooms into 6 cm long, 0.3 cm wide strips. Place the abalone strips in a wok and blanch until just cooked, then drain through a colander. Add the carrot and bamboo shoot strips to the wok with fine salt and blanch until cooked, then drain.
Stir-Fry to Finish
Heat a wok over high heat. Swirl in the oil to coat, then add the minced garlic, julienned ginger, and Shaoxing wine. Add the abalone, carrot, bamboo shoot, yellow chive, chili, and shiitake strips. Thicken with the thickening broth mixed with wet cornstarch, then drizzle in the finishing oil (15 g). Transfer to a plate and garnish with cilantro.
