How to choose ingredients for a delicious stir-fried spinach with garlic:
- Choose young, tender shoots of sweet potato leaves that are intact, fresh, and green, without any bruises or yellowing; preferably shoots about 5-7cm long for a softer texture, less fiber, and less bitter taste.
- Avoid choosing vegetables with curly leaves, excessively dark green color, or overly tough stems, as these may indicate the vegetables are old or have been grown with excessive fertilizers and pesticides.
- When choosing garlic, select firm bulbs with dry skin, small to medium-sized cloves, and a distinct aroma so that it releases a fragrant scent when sautéed, without being pungent.
- Pork lard or cooking oil should be clean, clear, and odorless to preserve the delicate flavor and natural aroma of the stir-fried water spinach with garlic.
How to make stir-fried water spinach with garlic
Wash and pick the tender shoots of the sweet potato leaves.
To achieve the natural crispness and sweetness of stir-fried water spinach with garlic, you should choose the tender shoots of the sweet potato leaves. In Vietnam, these shoots are usually about 5-7cm long; they are soft, less fibrous, and very suitable for stir-frying. Remove any old leaves and tough stems to prevent the leaves from becoming tough or bitter during cooking.
After picking the leaves, soak them in a bowl of water with a spoonful of salt for about 10 minutes to remove dirt and impurities. Then, rinse the leaves under clean running water 1-2 times and drain completely before stir-frying. Draining the leaves thoroughly will prevent them from releasing too much water during stir-frying, preserving their crispness and vibrant green color.
Stir-fried water spinach with garlic
Place a pan on the stove and add a sufficient amount of lard. When the lard is hot and starts to lightly smoke, add all the minced garlic and stir-fry quickly. Just stir the garlic for about 2-3 seconds until fragrant, then immediately add the spinach to the pan to prevent the garlic from burning and making the dish bitter.
Sauté the vegetables over high heat for about half a minute, stirring quickly to ensure even cooking and maintain crispness. When the vegetables begin to soften and turn a deep green, if they appear slightly dry, you can add a little hot water along the edges of the pan. Then, add the prepared cooking wine, salt, and oyster sauce, stirring well for another half minute to allow the seasonings to penetrate the vegetables. When the vegetables are just cooked through, turn off the heat to avoid overcooking and making them mushy.
Finished product
The finished stir-fried water spinach with garlic has a beautiful green color, the leaves are naturally crisp and sweet, combined with the fragrant garlic aroma and a perfectly balanced savory flavor. The dish is slightly unusual but very easy to eat, especially suitable to be served with hot white rice. Stir-fried water spinach with garlic is not only delicious but also an ideal choice for a simple, light, and very appetizing family meal.
