Cornstarch Paste
- 1⁄2 tablespoon cornstarch

directions
- Make sure seeds are removed from grapefruit sections; cut each section in half.

This had a delicious flavor. Another fast dish to put together for a lunch. The house smelled wonderful after cooking. I bought a Ruby Red grapefruit but I think they made a mistake....it wasn't very pink at all and it was tart not sweet. But that made for a great flavor in the stir fry. I chose to use shrimps instead of crab (only cause yesterdays meal we had the imitation crab) I started with sauteing the peppers first , garlic and then the shrimp and added the edamame because they seemed to be a bit frozen still. Then continued with the flavoring sauce and then the grapefruit. I mixed in Lo Mein noodles instead of rice. Was a fantastic meal. Delicious.....Made for the Think Pink Oct '09 Thanks for your recipe Jen
