Steps 5

  1. Step 1

    Wash the lettuce. Chop the garlic as finely as you can.

    生菜洗净。蒜尽量切得细一点。

  2. Step 2

    Heat water until almost boiling, then turn off the heat. Dip the green leaves in a few at a time for a moment, and the hearts for even less time.

    水烧到快开时关火,生菜分几次放进去,绿叶稍烫一下就捞出,菜心烫的时间更短。

  3. Step 3

    Drain the lettuce and spread it on a plate to cool a little.

    生菜捞出沥水,平铺在盘里稍微降温。

  4. Step 4

    Heat a little oil on low heat. Add the garlic, about 40 ml oyster sauce, the soy sauces and sugar, then stir-fry on medium heat for 1 minute.

    锅里放少许油,小火下蒜蓉、约40毫升蚝油、生抽、老抽和糖,转中火炒1分钟。

  5. Step 5

    Mix 2 spoons of cornstarch with water and stir it into the sauce until thick. Pour the sauce over the lettuce.

    2勺淀粉加清水调匀,倒进锅里和蚝油汁混合勾芡,再淋在生菜上。
