Braised Spring Bamboo Shoots in Oil

Braised Spring Bamboo Shoots in Oil

Baby bamboo shoots are seared in oil, then simmered in soy sauce and sugar until the sauce glazes each piece. The result is crisp-tender shoots with a concentrated sweet-savory taste.

Instructions

    Peel off the outer skin of fresh spring bamboo shoots and cut off the tough roots.

    Cut into large pieces using a rolling cut (don’t cut too small, they will shrink after stewing!).

    Put the food into cold water, add a spoon of salt, and cook for 2 minutes after the water boils! Take it out and rinse with cold water to remove bitterness and make it even more crisp and tender~

    Heat the pan and pour in the oil (you can add a little lard, the more oil, the more fragrant!) 4️⃣

    Fry the ginger until fragrant, then toss in the bamboo shoot chunks, stir-frying over medium heat until the surface is slightly golden! Rice wine is used to remove the fishy smell.

    Add 2 spoons of light soy sauce, 0.5 spoon of dark soy sauce, 1 spoon of sugar, and stir-fry crazily to color!

    Pour in a little hot water, cover and simmer on low heat for 3 minutes! Stir halfway through, and make sure the bottom of the pan doesn't burn~

    Turn up the heat to thicken the soup, and if you like it glossy, drizzle a spoonful of sesame oil on top! (You can also skip it).
