Stir-fried anything with Garlic & Chilli is delicious. Today I stir-fried Daikon with Garlic & Chilli, and I added Dried Shelled Shrimps that adds extra Umami to the dish. I used Salt to season it, but you may wish to use Soy Sauce instead, and that would be delicious, too.


Makes

2 to 3 Servings

Ingredients

10 to 15cm Daikon *about 200 to 220g after sliced
2 tablespoonfuls Dried Shelled Shrimps
1 tablespoon Oil *I used Sunflower Oil
1 clove Garlic *finely chopped
Chilli Flakes as required *I added 1/8 teaspoon
1 tablespoon Sake (Rice Wine)
1 pinch Salt *plus extra
1/2 teaspoon Asian Chicken Bouillon Powder *optional

Method
  1. Peel Daikon and cut into 5cm long and 2-3mm thick strips. You can cut it into thicker strips, but it would take longer time to cook.
  2. Heat Oil, Dried Shelled Shrimps, Garlic and Chilli Flakes over medium heat. When aromatic and slightly browned, add Daikon and stir well.
  3. Add Sake (Rice Wine), 1 pinch Salt and Asian Chicken Bouillon Powder (*optional), and stir to combine. Cover with a lid, and cook, stirring occasionally, until Daikon is soft.
  4. Taste it, and add extra Salt if required, and stir well.
