    300g garlic scapes (trimmed at both ends and cut into 5-cm sections)
  • ·
    120g lean pork (sliced thin)
  • ·
    50g carrot (cut into strips)

Additional Ingredients

  • ·
    25ml cooking oil (used in two times)

Seasonings

    5g salt
  • ·
    5ml cooking wine
  • ·
    5ml light soy sauce

DIRECTIONS

Step 1

Trim the ends of the garlic scapes and cut them into 5-cm sections. Slice the lean pork thinly and cut the carrot into strips. Set them aside.

Step 2

Pour 15ml of oil into the pan. When the oil is slightly warm, add the pork slices and stir-fry over high heat until they change color and turn pale. Take them out and set aside.

Step 3

Add another 10ml of oil to the pan. After the oil is hot, add the carrot strips and stir-fry until fragrant.

Step 4

Put in the garlic scape sections and stir-fry over medium heat until the surfaces become slightly wrinkled.

Step 5

Season with 5g of salt and continue to stir-fry until the garlic scapes turn soft and bright green.

Step 6

Pour in the previously stir-fried pork slices. Pour 5ml of cooking wine and 5ml of light soy sauce along the side of the pan. Stir-fry quickly over high heat for 10 seconds.

Step 7

Pour in 5ml of cornstarch slurry to thicken slightly. After stirring evenly, turn off the heat immediately and transfer to a plate.
