ingredients
- 1 handful bunch of Morning Glory
- 1 tablespoons garlic Pressed with your knife and roughly chopped
- 1 tablespoons Chilies Minced
- 1 1/2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoons Soy bean curd (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Cooking oil
- 1 pinch of sugar
Method
Step 1
Prepare morning glory by clean the vegetable well and shake a little to remove the water.
Step 2
Pick the vegetable with your fingers. You will hear the “pop” sound. Usually it will pop well on the top and middle part of the stem. When you get towards the end it will stop and you will feel that it doesn’t crack out and rather tough. That means, that part is to discard. This is the special technique from Thai kitchen. Don’t use a knife to chop because you won’t hear the “pop” 😉
Step 3
Put the morning glory on a plate and top with garlic and chilies, ready to stir-fry.
Step 4
Make the sauce by mixing soy sauce, sugar and soy bean paste
Step 5
Stir-fry over high heat and add stir-fry sauce. Add a little bit of water to give the dish some juice.
