STIR-FRIED WATER SPINACH WITH GARLIC



Stir-Fried Water Spinach with Garlic image

This quick cooking side dish is ready in 15 minutes but only five of those minutes are hands-on in the kitchen, making it a perfect addition to any weeknight menu. Look for water spinach (called rau muong or ong choy) in Asian markets. Regular spinach is a fine substitute, though it won't have the same silkiness. You can top it with your favorite protein for a one-dish dinner. Try adding tofu, chicken, shrimp, or even seared tuna to your bowl for a hearty dinner that won't leave you feeling stuffed. Add this recipe to your rotation to expand your palate and bring some flavor to the table.

  • Using a mortar and pestle, roughly smash the chiles with the sugar and the garlic. The chiles should be bruised, but still whole. The garlic should turn slightly translucent from the pounding, but should not be turned into a paste. You're simply looking to release flavor, not make a uniform mixture.
  • Heat a wok or large, flat-sided fry pan to the highest heat your stove can handle. Before cooking, back it off a bit--to medium-high heat.
  • Add the pork to the pan. Stir-fry until well browned and crispy, about 4 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer the pork to a small bowl, leaving the little remaining fat behind.

  • Remove the larger, tough stems from the vegetables. You can leave the thinner, tender stems. Wash the vegetables thoroughly in water (a couple soaks and rinses should work) and transfer to a colander to let the excess water drain.
  • Heat oil in a wok over high heat and add the ginger. Stir for about 10 seconds and then add the dried chilies, garlic, fermented tofu, sugar, salt, and white pepper.
  • Stir fry the mixture, keeping the heat on high, and add the greens. Stir-fry, moving the vegetables around the bottom of the wok so nothing burns. Use a folding motion, stir fry the mixture so all of the vegetables get seared evenly. After about a minute of this, move the vegetables into a mound in the middle of the wok. This technique is to allow the sides of the wok to reheat to get the “wok hay” flavor in there.
  • After about 30 seconds of high heat, add the wine around the perimeter of the wok and quickly spread your vegetable mound in a circular motion around the wok to get that searing “wok hay” effect for another 15-30 seconds.
