Ingredients :-
上海青,萝卜,蒜头
Shanghai Green, a kind of green leaf vegetable looks like BaiCai but I'm not sure why it is being called Shanghai Green, Carrot and Garlic are all we need for this dish. 1 packet of Shanghai Green can serve 2 person share. Need only 1 Carrot and cut into slices as shown. Garlic probably need a few small bulbs of those and chop into tiny pieces. You can grind, pound or use a chopper to do it. Now think you can recall those chopping sound your mother made when she was in the kitchen cooking ? Ok Garlic, I know the taste is not nice but hey, Garlic is good for digestive system. That is why you chop into small pieces so that your kids or yourself can eat without concerning about the "awful taste".
Cooking Instruction :-
1. Wash the Shanghai Green and if you wish can cut into smaller portion. Normally, I will discard the top part of the stalk.
2. Peel off the Carrot skin, wash and cut into thin slices. Why thin slices ? Carrot is quite hard to cook so to cut into thin slices get accelerate the cooking.
3. Peel off skin of Garlic, wash and then chop into tiny pieces. You can use grinder, pounder or chopper to do it.
4. Heat up the wok/frying pan with oil.
5. When heated up, put in the tiny chopped pieces of Garlic, you just need to use the spatular/ladle to mix the Garlic a few times and you can instantly smell the Garlic being cooked.
6. Put in the slices of Carrot, you probably need a little bit longer time to cook the Carrot. You can use the spatular/ladle to kind of press the Carrot and if they become soft mean cook already.
7. Lastly, put in the Shanghai Green, vegetable is easily cooked as when you see the colour turns darker and size shrink.
8. Optional step, you can opt to put in a small portion of water, for me the purpose is to use the water to dilute the oil and and the same time use the heated up water to assist in cooking the food.
9. Whole process probably take you not more than 5 minutes and you can scoop up to serve.
Thumb up for all Daddies, another vegetable dish for the family. :)
