Neutral cooking oil1 tbsp
Salt1/4 tsp
Rice wine1 tsp
White peppera pinch

How to make it

  1. Wash the lettuce, drain it very well and tear it into big pieces by hand.
  2. Heat a wok over high heat and add the oil.
  3. Add the garlic and fry for about 10 seconds. Do not let it burn.
  4. Add the lettuce and toss quickly over high heat.
  5. Add the salt and rice wine and keep tossing for 30 seconds to 1 minute. Take it off the heat as soon as the leaves go limp.
  6. Sprinkle on the white pepper and plate it right away.

Tips

  • Lettuce cooks very fast. Cook it too long and it releases water and turns mushy.
  • Get the pan properly hot and do not overcrowd it. Two smaller batches work better.
  • Spoon the juices at the bottom of the plate over white rice.
