Stir-Fried Water Spinach with Garlic

Ingredients

• •1 lb water spinach, cut into 2-inch pieces
• •6 cloves garlic, minced
• •3 tbsp soy sauce
• •1 tbsp oyster sauce
• •1 tsp sesame oil
• •1/2 tsp sugar
• •2 tbsp vegetable oil
• •2 cloves garlic, sliced thin
• •1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
• •1/4 cup water

Directions

1. 1Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat until shimmering.
2. 2Add minced garlic and sliced garlic, stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
3. 3Add the water spinach pieces and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until slightly softened.
4. 4Pour in soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, sugar, and water, stirring constantly.
5. 5Add red pepper flakes and toss everything together for another 1-2 minutes.
6. 6Taste and adjust seasoning if needed, then serve immediately while hot.

💡 Water spinach needs fierce heat and a very short cook. Long simmering collapses the stems and dulls the fresh garlic flavour.
