Ingredients

– 1 tablespoon sesame oil

– 2 bunches various green leaves

– 2 tablespoons sesame oil

– 4 tablespoons soy sauce

– 4 tablespoons rice wine vinegar

Instructions

1-Getting fried greens just right: starts with simple steps that anyone can follow. Begin by heating the oil and garlic to build a flavorful base. This method keeps the greens vibrant and full of taste.

2-Rinse the fresh greens thoroughly under cold water to remove any dirt. Once dry, heat 1 tablespoon sesame oil in a wok over high heat and add 2 cloves of thinly sliced garlic. Stir fry for 1 minute until it becomes fragrant.

3-Next, add the tougher leaves and stems, stirring for 2 to 3 minutes. Then, toss in the more delicate leaves and cook for another minute until they wilt. For the sauce, whisk together 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 4 tablespoons soy sauce, 4 tablespoons rice wine vinegar, 4 teaspoons minced ginger, and 2 teaspoons minced garlic, then pour it over the greens.

4-Stir fry everything for 1 more minute to heat through, ensuring the flavors blend well. Serve on a large dish and drizzle with 2 tablespoons of chilli oil for a spicy finish. This quick process, with just 5 minutes prep and 5 minutes cook time, totals 10 minutes, making it ideal for fast meals.
