4 SERVING

Ingredients:

1 qt. Water
1/4 tsp. Salt
2 stalks Celtuce, shredded
1/2 large Carrot, shredded
1½ tbsp. Cooking oil
1 tbsp. Green onion, chopped
1/2 tsp. Sugar
1 tsp. Sesame oil

Directions:

Step 1

Chop the celtuce and carrots, then slice into thin, fine strips. The thinner the slices, the finer the strips.

Step 2

Fill a pot halfway with water and set over high heat, add salt and bring to a boil.

Step 3

Add in the strips of celtuce and carrots and boil for 10 seconds.

Step 4

Take them out and submerge them in ice water to cool down. This way they keep their color and crispy texture. After they have cooled down, remove and drain.

Step 5

Pour some oil into a small frying pan and set over medium heat. Turn off the heat when the oil temperature rises to 170°F (80°C) and quickly add in the chopped green onion, and sauté until they are aromatic.

Step 6

Finally, add in the strips of celtuce and carrot, add sugar, pour in some sesame oil, and mix well, then it is ready to serve.

Step 7

Enjoy!
