After 2 min. drain through colander or sieve, reserving 2-3 tbs. oil. Prepare the Hot Sauce. Return reserved oil to wok. Add garlic & onion, letting them brown slightly. Add water chestnuts, mushrooms & shrimp. Blend in Hot Sauce & flip contents of wok for 1-2 min. or until everything is hot. Place on serving platter & sprinkle w/ chopped scallions.
