Stir Fried Greens With Fish Sauce Recipes

STIR-FRIED GREENS WITH FISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Remove any discoloured or coarse leaves from the cabbage, then halve it. Remove the hard central ribs and discard them, then shred the leaves. If using purple sprouting broccoli, halve any thicker stems lengthways.
• Heat the oil in a wok. Stir-fry the broccoli for 1 min, then add the garlic and cabbage and cook until the garlic is a pale gold colour. Quickly add the spinach and fish sauce and turn the veg over - the moisture should come out of the spinach and boil off quickly. Add the sugar and toss the vegetables again, then add a little more fish sauce, if you like.

STIR-FRIED GREENS WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Soak the rice vermicelli in boiling water for 4 minutes. Drain, refresh under cold water, drain again and set aside.
• Mix soy, fish sauce and oyster sauce in a bowl. Heat the sunflower oil in a large wok, add spring onions, chopped garlic cloves and the deseeded and chopped chilli.
• Stir fry for 20 seconds before adding the thinly sliced shiitake or chestnut mushrooms and broccoli florets. Stir fry for 1 minute, then add the pak choi and the sauce mixture. Stir and cook for about 2 minutes over a high heat, adding a splash of water if the sauce becomes too thick.
• Tip in the noodles, remove from the heat and toss to mix well. Serve in warmed bowls and tuck in with your chopsticks.

STIR FRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Place all the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together. The sauce can be used to stir fry vegetables, meat, fish and noodles.
• To use the sauce, heat the oil in a wok, then add your choice of meat, vegetables or fish. Fry for a minute over a high heat to seal, and then add the stir fry sauce, before continuing to stir-fry for a further four minutes or so until the ingredients are fully cooked. Serve immediately.
