A delicious and authentic sauces recipe for Stir Fried Garlic Scape with Eggs, prepared with traditional seasonings and techniques.
Ingredients
- • 2 tablespoons vegetarian oyster sauce ((or regular oyster sauce))
- • 2 teaspoons soy sauce
- • 1 1/2 tablespoon peanut oil ((or vegetable oil))
- • 4 egg (beaten)
- • 1/2 thumb ginger (minced)
- • 2 spring onions (sliced (Reserve a small portion for garnish))
- • 12 oz (340 g) garlic scapes (sliced to 1” (2.5 cm) pieces (Yield 2 2/1 cup once cut))
Preparation Steps
Mix the oyster sauce and soy sauce together in a small bowl. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the eggs. Let cook for a few seconds until the bottom sets. Scramble the eggs lightly until just cooked through, then transfer them to a plate and set aside.
Add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon of oil, ginger and spring onions. Stir a few times to release the fragrance.
Add the garlic scapes. Stir and cook for 2 minutes, until it starts to soften if using Asian garlic scapes. Cook for a longer time if using US garlic scapess (*Footnote 1). Pour in the oyster sauce mixture and stir a few times to mix well. Taste a piece of garlic scape. It should be tender but still a bit crisp. You can cook it longer for a more tender texture, if you prefer.
Return the eggs to the pan. Stir and cook for another 30 seconds. Transfer everything to a large serving plate. Garnish with the remaining fresh spring onions, if using. Serve hot over rice as a main dish or as a side dish.
