Purslane, a nutrient-rich green with a slightly tangy taste, is a versatile ingredient in many cuisines. Here’s a step-by-step guide to making delicious garlic purslane, a quick and healthy dish.
First, prepare the purslane. Wash 500g fresh purslane thoroughly, trim the roots, and cut it into 3-4 cm segments. For extra tenderness, blanch the stems in boiling water for 1 minute, then add the leaves for 30 seconds. Drain and rinse under cold water to retain its color.
Next, heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok over medium heat. Add 4 minced garlic cloves and stir-fry until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Be careful not to burn the garlic, as it turns bitter.
Add the blanched purslane to the wok. Season with 1 teaspoon of salt, a pinch of sugar (to balance the tanginess), and a dash of light soy sauce if desired. Toss everything together for 1-2 minutes, ensuring the greens are evenly coated. For a richer flavor, drizzle 1 teaspoon of sesame oil before turning off the heat.
Serve hot as a side dish with rice or noodles. This simple preparation highlights purslane’s fresh taste while garlic adds a savory kick. Enjoy this nutritious and flavorful dish in under 15 minutes!
