This is great as nibbles or even a starter. It is very simple, easily prepared in advance but does need frying at the last minute. Serve in triangles or bite sized pieces. This is enough to make 3 slices of bread so enough for 4 for a starter and maybe 6 as nibbles.
You will need a food processor to blend the mixture. The bamboo shoots come in a tin from the Supermarket and the rest can be used in any type of stir fry to add crunch.
