Steps:

  • Combine the rice wine or sherry, soy sauce, sugar, and salt in a small bowl.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl in the vegetable oil, add the garlic, and stir-fry for 5 seconds. Add the lettuce and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, or until it is just limp. Stir the sauce, swirl it into the wok, and stir-fry for 30 seconds to 1 minute more, or until the lettuce is just tender and still bright green. Remove from the heat, drizzle on the sesame oil, and serve.

1 tablespoon Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3/4 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
5 medium garlic cloves, smashed and peeled
1 pound hearts of romaine lettuce, cut crosswise into 1-inch-wide pieces
1 teaspoon sesame oil (see note)

STIR-FRIED LETTUCE WITH GARLIC

Many people think of iceberg lettuce as only something to layer on a burger or sandwich or toss in a salad. Others dismiss iceberg lettuce all together because it is low on nutrients but I love iceberg lettuce. Its cool and crisp low in calories and although not nutrient dense it is high in water content, which makes it very...

Stir-fried Lettuce with Garlic image

Steps:

  • 1. Wash the head of lettuce, separating leaves and then drain well. Tear lettuce into bite size pieces or cut the lettuce leaves into 1-inch wide pieces and set aside.
  • 2. Combine the rice wine, soy sauce, salt, and sugar in a small bowl, and set aside.
  • 3. Heat a wok over medium-high heat and add oil, add the garlic, ginger, and red pepper flakes if using when the oil is hot. Stir-fry for about 5 seconds or just until aromatic; add the lettuce and stir-fry an additional 1-2 minutes or just until the lettuce is limp.
  • 4. Stir the sauce and then pour around the lettuce mixture in the wok and stir-fry for 30-60 seconds until the lettuce is tender but still bright green. Remove from heat and finish it off by drizzling on the sesame. Serve immediately.
  • 5. The Chinese consider lettuce to be a "lucky" food and it is often served during the Chinese New Year. I hope you enjoy this recipe if you try it and I hope that it brings you luck if you do. ;)

1 Tbsp chinese rice wine
1 Tbsp soy sauce (i use light )
1/4 tsp sea salt
1/2 tsp granulated sugar,
1 1/2 Tbsp peanut oil (can use vegetable)
4 clove garlic, smashed and rough chopped
1 1/2 tsp minced ginger
1/4 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional or use less)
1 tsp sesame oil
1 large iceberg lettuce head (about 1 pound)

STIR-FRIED LETTUCE WITH CRISPY GARLIC AND FRIED EGGS

In Chinese culture, cooked lettuce is a symbol of good luck and is often eaten during Lunar New Year feasts. In Cantonese, the word for lettuce is sang choy, and in Mandarin, it's sheng cai, which sounds like the words for "growing wealth" in each language. Stir-fried lettuce is commonly served as a bed for braised mushrooms or simply as a green side dish. Here, stir-fried lettuce, fried eggs and crispy garlic chips perch on a bed of rice, a simple meal with comforting flavors and textures. The joy of this preparation is that the lettuce retains a fresh crunch even after cooking; iceberg is preferred, but romaine will give you similar results. Vegetarian stir-fry sauce is a product sold in Asian grocery stores, but you can also use oyster sauce. For a shortcut, skip the fried garlic and top with store-bought crispy fried onions or shallots.

Stir-Fried Lettuce With Crispy Garlic and Fried Eggs image

Steps:

  • Using a sharp paring knife, run it around the core of the lettuce, then gently pull it out. Remove any discolored outer layers of the lettuce and discard. Tear the lettuce into large chunks. Wash the leaves and allow them to drain after gently shaking in a colander.
  • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sesame oil, vegetarian stir-fry or oyster sauce, sugar and ¼ teaspoon salt. Season with pepper.
  • Heat a large (12-inch) deep skillet on medium-high. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons of olive oil to lightly coat the pan, then add the ginger and cook for 15 to 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add the lettuce and stir-fry for 2 minutes, until it starts to wilt. Pour the sauce over the lettuce and stir-fry for another 1 to 2 minutes. (Take care not to overcook, as you want your lettuce to retain some crunch.) Taste and season with salt, if needed. Place the lettuce (and all the pan juices) in a bowl and set aside. Once your skillet is cool enough to handle, rinse it out and dry.
  • To the same skillet over medium-high heat, add the ¼ cup olive oil and sliced garlic. Stir constantly for 3 to 4 minutes until the garlic turns a pale golden brown. (Watch carefully! It burns quickly.) Remove the garlic from the oil with a slotted spoon and place on a paper towel to drain; it will continue to brown and crisp as it cools.
  • To the remaining oil in the skillet over medium-high heat, add the eggs and cook untouched until whites are set, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • To serve, place a mound of rice in a bowl, top with lettuce, some pan juices, a fried egg, crispy garlic and a scatter of sesame seeds and scallions. Finish with a tiny drizzle of Maggi seasoning sauce, if using.

1 head of iceberg lettuce (about 1½ pounds)
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons vegetarian stir-fry sauce, or oyster sauce
1/4 teaspoon granulated sugar
Kosher salt (Diamond Crystal)
Black or white pepper
2 tablespoons plus ¼ cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 (1-inch) piece of ginger, peeled and finely chopped
6 garlic cloves, peeled and thinly sliced
4 eggs
Steamed rice, for serving
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
2 scallions, green and white parts, finely sliced
Maggi seasoning sauce, for serving (optional)

Steps:

  • Peel apart the lettuce leaves and roughly tear them into smaller pieces. I usually just halve each leaf. Heat the oil in a wok or a large frying pan (metal woks, rather than non-stick, give a better flavour to this dish). Throw in the garlic and fry for 1 min until fragrant, then add the lettuce leaves - they will make a noisy sizzle.
  • Add the oyster sauce and 100ml water. Fold in all the lettuce so that it is well coated. Add the white pepper. Cook all the leaves until they start to wilt but still have crunch.

STIR-FRIED LETTUCE

This is great if you have a head of lettuce that you have to use right away. Even if you don't, its still a great side dish to any asian meal. Simple to make, with common ingredients, its a keeper for sure. Try different lettuce varieties, I used romane tonight since its what was on hand. I also didn't have sesamee oil tonight so I used walnut oil and it was still a winner. I like to toss in some toasted sesame seeds and if I have them on hand a green onion, chopped, is nice to add with the lettuce. As you can see, this recipe leaves a huge opening for your own additions and variations.

STIR-FRIED ICEBERG LETTUCE WITH SHRIMP

In stir-fries, like this one, iceberg lettuce retains some crunch and structure, and its flavor is, if anything, accentuated by the fast cooking. (Don't cook it too long, though, or it will turn to mush and the dish will become watery.)

Stir-Fried Iceberg Lettuce With Shrimp image

Steps:

  • Combine soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine, sugar and cornstarch in a small bowl and mix well; set aside.
  • Put a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of the peanut oil, swirl it around and immediately add garlic and ginger. Cook for 15 seconds, stirring, then add scallion and lettuce. Raise heat to high and cook, stirring occasionally, until lettuce just softens, about 2 to 3 minutes; transfer everything to a plate and set aside.
  • Turn the heat down to medium, add remaining tablespoon of oil, let it get hot, add shrimp and sprinkle with salt and pepper; raise heat to high, continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until shrimp turn pink and are no longer translucent, about 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Turn heat down to medium, return lettuce to pan, and toss once or twice. Stir sauce to make sure cornstarch and sugar are well blended and add to pan. Cook until everything is warmed through and sauce thickens. Garnish with chopped scallions and serve.

  • Take the lettuce and firmly hit it on the counter to remove the core. (One of the first of many tricks I learned when working in the restaurant industry!)
  • Remove the first outer layer of the lettuce and any discolored leaves and discard. Tear the lettuce with your hands into large 4 to 5-inch pieces.
  • Place the lettuce in a large bowl of very cold water and give it a good stir. This washes your lettuce and rehydrates it. Next, drain the lettuce in a colander and give it a good shake to remove the excess water from the surface of the lettuce. Iceberg lettuce already contains a lot of water, so removing the excess water is important, or you’ll end up with too much liquid. Feel free to use a salad spinner, which is a good idea if your stove and wok does not generate enough high heat.
  • Combine the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, salt, sugar, white pepper into a small bowl and set aside.
