Cooking Instructions
Step 1
Today’s dish is a stir-fry made from dried zucchini, prepared from 2 zucchinis. Its chewy texture is simply fantastic!
Step 2
Soak the dried zucchini in lukewarm water for about 20 minutes until softened. After soaking, gently knead them to wash clean. Don’t squeeze out all the water; leave them slightly moist for the best texture.
Step 3
Now it’s time to stir-fry! Heat the cooking oil in a pan, add the minced garlic and minced green onion, and sauté until fragrant. Then, add the prepared dried zucchini and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, allowing the ingredients to meld together.
Step 4
As the dried zucchini begins to cook, add the fine salt and stir-fry for another 30 seconds to season. Adjust the salt according to your preference.
Step 5
Time to add more flavor! Drizzle in the versatile soy sauce and sesame oil, then stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes. Ensure the umami from the soy sauce and the nutty aroma of the sesame oil deeply penetrate the zucchini.
Step 6
This is the final step. Just before turning off the heat, sprinkle in the toasted sesame seeds for added nuttiness and mix gently.
Step 7
Your delicious dried zucchini stir-fry is ready! It’s perfect served over warm rice or as a side dish for your lunchbox. Serve in a nice dish and enjoy!
