CHINESE SWISS CHARD STIR-FRY RECIPE

Steps:

• Snap each stem toward the end, which will allow you to peel away the stringy bits (as you would with celery). Discard the fibrous, stringy layer.
• Slice Swiss chard, about 1 inch long for the stem part and 2 inches for the leafy leaves. Bring a pot of water to boil. Add some salt. Add the Swiss chard stem pieces and cook for 3 minutes. Add the leafy parts and cook for 1 minute. Drain under cold running water. Gently squeeze the water out from the chard.
• Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium flame. Add doubanjiang and stir-fry until it smells delicious and the oil is a rich red. Add garlic, ginger, and fermented black beans and stir-fry for a few moments more until you can smell their fragrances.
• Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Add the chard and stir-fry until the sauce and greens are well mixed and heat through.
• Sprinkle with green onion and serve immediately with rice. (If using celery and cilantro, add them with green onion.) Serve Swiss chard immediately with rice. It makes a great side dish for any Asian main course.

Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and tilting it back and forth. Add the garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for no more than 10 seconds. Add the chard, and stir-fry for two minutes, until the leaves wilt. Add the red pepper and spring onion or red onion. Turn the heat to high, and stir-fry for one minute, or until the pepper begins to soften. Add the salt, pepper and sugar. Toss together, and add the soy sauce mixture.
