Most of the small children
that I looked after in my child care centre love eating vegetables which are
crunchy. As I grow older I find that I love eating crunchy vegetables. This makes
me wonder if I am now in my second childhood. Hope that I don’t have to start
wearing diapers like the children. Today I am pairing the kai lan stems with smoked
bacon chips to get that smoky flavour.
Another variety of kai lan
is the fairly large stems which do not have many leaves. They are grown mainly
for the stems which are very crunchy and tastes delicious just fried with
sliced garlic or other ingredients like carrots and wan yee.
Ingredients
2 kai lan stems
Some smoked bacon chips
Remove the tough fibrous skin
and slice the stem
thinly and diagonally.
Fry some chopped garlic
until slightly brown
Add the bacon chips and
fry until fragrant
Add the kai lan stems and mix
thoroughly
Season with salt and
pepper
Cover and cook until the
stems are translucent
Remember to stir
occasionally and add a bit more water if needed
Dish out to a serving platter and serve immediately
