Hi! I'm Jameson, traditional Chinese restaurant kid turned queer plant-forward food lover. I am so happy you are here and I hope you stay for some tea.
Instructions
Add oil (1 Tbsp) in a pan or wok over medium heat. Add in the garlic (3 cloves) and let it sizzle until fragrant for about 30 seconds, followed by the pea shoots (1 lb) immediately. It is fine if they are still wet after being cleaned, it will help with the cooking process, as it will gently steam the leaves and deglaze the pan or wok. Let that sauté for 30 seconds.
Add in the Shaoxing wine (1 Tbsp) to deglaze a bit more.
Add in the veg bouillon powder or Yondu (1 tsp) and stir-fry until everything is wilted while still a bright green.
Taste and add more salt to taste, and immediately remove and serve.
