Simple San Choy Bau - cooking recipe
Ingredients
-
1 1/2 lbs ground chicken
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 (3 1/2 ounce) can water chestnuts, finely chopped
3 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 teaspoon sugar
6 scallions
4 lettuce leaves
oyster sauce, as topping, to taste (optional)
Preparation
-
Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan. Add chicken and garlic and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, making sure to use a wooden spoon to break up any lumpy bits that form.
Reduce the heat and drain any excess liquid, then add all of the remaining ingredients except the lettuce leaves.
Trim the lettuce leaves to form a cup shape and divide the chicken mixture among them. Top with additional oyster sauce, to taste, if desired, and serve hot (with rice or, ideally, sesame noodles).
