We’ll show you how to make delicious stir-fried sea mustard stems without any fishy odor.
Ingredients- 1 pack Sea Mustard Stems
- A pinch of black pepper
- 1 handful Carrots
- 1/2 tsp Sugar
- A pinch of sesame seeds
- 1/2 tsp Minced garlic
- 1 tsp Oligosaccharide
- 1 tsp Sesame oil.
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Let’s make some stir-fried sea mustard stems, a perfect side dish for packed lunches! First, we need to remove the salt from the sea mustard stems, as they are usually packed with a lot of it. Soak the sea mustard stems in water to draw out the saltiness. After soaking for a while, taste a piece to check if the saltiness has reduced. Once it’s to your liking, drain them thoroughly in a colander. Squeezing out excess water is key to prevent a soggy texture.
Step 2
Next, we’ll prepare the pan. Drizzle perilla oil into a frying pan. This perilla oil is a secret tip for eliminating any fishy smell from the sea mustard stems, infusing it with a wonderful aroma.
Step 3
Add the sea mustard stems and thinly sliced carrots to the pan. Stir-fry them together until the vegetables are tender and slightly softened. Sautéing allows the flavors to meld beautifully.
Step 4
Now, add the seasonings: a pinch of black pepper to enhance the savory notes, 1/2 tsp sugar for a touch of sweetness, 1 tsp oligosaccharide for a glossy finish and mild sweetness, 1 tsp sesame oil for nutty fragrance, and 1/2 tsp minced garlic for aromatic depth.
Step 5
Finally, sprinkle in a pinch of sesame seeds. Stir everything well to ensure the seasonings are evenly distributed. Continue to stir-fry for another minute or two, until everything is beautifully combined and fragrant.
Step 6
Look at that gorgeous color and inviting aroma! Thanks to the perilla oil and black pepper, any potential fishy smell is completely gone, leaving you with a wonderfully flavorful and aromatic dish.
Step 7
And there you have it! A healthy and delicious stir-fried sea mustard stems, ready to be enjoyed. This simple yet flavorful dish is a fantastic addition to any meal, especially as a lunchbox side.
