Stir-Fried Bok Choy With Glass Noodle 小白菜炒粉丝

Stir-Fried Bok Choy With Glass Noodle 小白菜炒粉丝

 

Simple home cooking


It's always crowded in the wet market on Sundays, so crowded that we could not find a space to park our car. SK had to stop at the roadside while I went across the road to buy something to cook for lunch and dinner. The stalls were jam-packed with people, one could hardly squeeze through. Not wanting to get stuck in the crowd of people, I decided to cook simple food today. I bought bok choy, chicken, spring onion and parsley, all readily available along the edge of the market close to the roadside. 

I decided to cook the bok choy with glass noodle and dried shrimps. 



Ingredients


150g bok choy
30g glass noodle
30g dried shrimps
1 1/2 bowls water
1 tbsp minced garlic
2 tbsp cooking oil
3/4 tsp salt
1 tsp sugar


 Soak glass noodle in water until soft. Drain dry and set aside

 Wash bok choy and cut into sections of 6 cm

Soak dried shrimps in water for 10 to 15 minutes. Drain dry and set aside

Instructions


1.  Heat a wok until hot. Add in cooking oil.
2.  Saute the minced garlic until fragrant and add in the dried shrimps. Stir-fry for 1 minute.
3.. Add in the bok choy and fry over high heat for 2 minutes.
4.  Add in 1 1/2 bowls of water and add in glass noodles. Let it simmer for about 4 to 5 minutes.
5.  Add salt and sugar to taste.
6.   Switch off the flame and dish up.
