Chinese people do not eat raw vegetables. We cook them. You can add meat or mushrooms to the dish. This is very flexible. I would just like to introduce this to people worldwide.

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cabbage (or other vegetables or pods of legumen)
1 1/2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 teaspoon salt (you may regulate the amount to suit your taste)
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon oyster sauce (optional)
1 piece ginger (for vegetables only, size like two cloves of garlic)
2 cloves garlic (for pods of legumen only)

Steps:

  • Chop the vegetables or pods to the size you like.
  • Remove the skin of ginger or garlic.
  • Crush the ginger or garlic flat but DO NOT chop it.
  • Add the oil onto a hot pot, for us Chinese people, we use a"wok".
  • Cook the ginger or garlic for a while.
  • Add the vegetables or the pods.
  • Stir fry them until they are soft.
  • Add water if it is too dry.
  • This is often necessary for pods and harder veggies.
  • For pods, cover the pot with a lid and stir fry the veggies alternately until they are cooked.
  • Add salt, sugar and oyster sauce and mix well.
