Stir-fry Local Brussel Sprouts with Dried Prawns

Not sure if this is the correct term for 'Choy-tam' the local version of Brussel sprouts. PiggyBeng likes this vege a lot and I will normally stir-fry them with dried prawns sambal chili.

As I did not have any dried prawns sambal with me so I twist the recipe a little by just using the dried prawns with chili padi. It turned out quite ok. Also, it is a very simple dish to prepare.

Ingredients

  • 7-8 stalks Choy-tam

  • 1tsp chopped garlic

  • 1tbsp Dried prawns

  • 1 Chili padi

  • Salt for taste
.

Methods

  1. Heat up wok with 1tbsp oil and stir-fry the dried prawns (softened by using the pestle and mortar) till fragrant. Add in the garlic and chili and continue to stir.

  2. Throw in the Choy-tam and stir-fry for 2 minutes, add a little water (to help softern the vege), cover for another 1 minute.

  3. Add in a little salt (not too much as the dried prawns are salty) and continue to stir till the vege looks soft. Served.
