Time Saver : A Simple Chinese Sauce
One of the reasons I love this dish is : the sauce is super easy to make.
You just have to fry the garlic and chilli, then mix with soy sauce, oyster sauce, ShaoXing wine and sugar. Cook this sauce together with enoki, as enoki will release enough water, so you’ll have a juicy, garlicky and typical Chinese sauce.
Swap Scallion with Chives
If you don’t like or don’t have scallion, you can swap them with chives, just like the recipe I adopted from thewoksoflife. But in Europe, Chinese chives are not easy to find, so I replaced them with scallions, which also created a great result!
See You Tomorrow? Cut it!
One thing to keep in mind is : Enoki is difficult to digest. Hence, it has another name called ‘See You Tomorrow’. It’s a little gross to say it in a food post, but it’s true! So you may want to cut it into smaller pieces to cope with the digestion problem. And also, remember to chew more!
