Instructions
- Prepare the water spinach. Trim the tough ends of the stems and discard any wilted leaves. Cut the water spinach into manageable, bite sized pieces by breaking the stems.
- Blanch the water spinach. Bring a pot of water to a boil. Blanch the cut water spinach in the boiling water for about 2 minutes or until the stems become slightly tender but still crisp. Drain thoroughly and set aside.
- Stir-Fry. Heat the cooking oil in a wok or a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the garlic and sauté until fragrant, being careful not to burn it. Add the blanched water spinach to the wok, stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes until the water spinach is evenly coated with the garlic-infused oil.
- Infuse with flavor. Stir in oyster sauce and sugar over the mixture and continue to stir-fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the water spinach is tender yet still vibrant green.
- Taste test. Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary, adding salt and pepper according to your preference.
- Serve. Transfer it to a serving dish. Serve alongside your favorite main course.
