How to Make Bacon and Snow Peas: A Complete Guide

Bacon and snow peas are a match made in heaven, offering a perfect blend of smoky, savory, and crisp flavors. Here’s a simple yet delicious recipe to guide you.

Ingredients:

200g bacon, cut into strips; 300g snow peas, trimmed; 2 cloves garlic, minced; 1 tbsp soy sauce; 1 tsp sugar; 1 tbsp cooking oil; a pinch of pepper.

Steps:

1. Prep the ingredients: Rinse snow peas and pat dry. If the peas are thick, string them.

2. Cook the bacon: Heat oil in a wok over medium heat. Add bacon and stir-fry until crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Remove excess bacon fat, leaving 1 tbsp in the wok.

3. St-fry aromatics: Add minced garlic and stir-fry until fragrant (10-15 seconds). Be careful not to burn it.

4. Cook snow peas: Toss in snow peas and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until bright green but still crisp-tender.

5. Season and combine: Return bacon to the wok. Add soy sauce, sugar, and pepper. Stir well for 30 seconds to coat everything evenly.

Tips: For extra flavor, a dash of sesame oil or oyster sauce works wonders. Serve hot as a side dish or with rice. This quick dish takes under 15 minutes and is sure to impress with its vibrant colors and irresistible taste!
