Stir-fried sliced yam is a nutritious and delicious dish, loved for its crispy texture and mild flavor. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making it at home.
Ingredients: Fresh yam (500g), 2 cloves garlic (minced), 1 green onion (chopped), 1 red chili (sliced, optional), cooking oil (2 tbsp), light soy sauce (1 tbsp), salt (a pinch), white pepper (a dash).
Steps:
1. Prep the yam: Peel the yam and slice it into thin, uniform rounds (about 2mm thick). Soak the slices in cold water for 10 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat dry.
2. Heat the wok: Heat oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high fire. Add minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant (about 30 seconds).
3. Stir-fry the yam: Add the yam slices and stir-fry quickly for 3-4 minutes until they turn slightly translucent and crisp. Avoid overcooking to maintain a firm texture.
4. Season: Drizzle in light soy sauce, sprinkle salt and white pepper. Toss to combine evenly.
5. Finish: Add green onions and red chili (if using). Stir-fry for another 30 seconds, then transfer to a plate.
Tips: For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of sugar or a dash of vinegar to balance the taste. Serve hot as a side dish with rice or noodles.
This simple dish highlights the natural sweetness of yam and is perfect for a quick, healthy meal. Enjoy!
