I just had someone bring a garlic chives plant from the farm to grow in my balcony garden.
I used to eat garlic chives, but I had never seen its plant; now I can see it with my own eyes.
Garlic chives are similar to garlic leaves, but their leaves are thinner. It has a smell, and its smell is like green leaves in a fried or steamed garlic chive cake.
I prepared to separate them into other pots. Before separating, I was told to cut the leaves first; hence, I cut them in half, and I didn’t want to waste them, so I fried them with minced pork.
The ingredients I used are:
- Garlic chives
- Pork
- Salt
- MSG
- Sugar
- Garlic
- Cooking oil
I minced the pork and put it in a bowl. Then I put salt, MSG, and sugar to mix with the minced pork.
After that, I minced the garlic.
As for garlic chives, I cut them to about my finger length.
Later on, I put the pan on the cooker and heated it until it was hot, then I put in cooking oil before I put in minced garlic. When it became golden, I put in minced pork and fried them together. Before I put in garlic chives, I tasted the meat. I added salt if it was bland; if it was salty, I added sugar.
After I tasted it a second time and found that the taste was fine, I put in the garlic chive plants. Because they were thin, I fried them quickly. In just a few seconds, I hurriedly removed the heat and took it out of the pan to put on the plate.
If you are in Cambodia or your house garden has garlic chive plants, you can try this recipe. It is simple and easy to cook.
