It is quite common that people struggle to use up a whole Iceberg Lettuce. You can’t eat Lettuce Salad day after day. I know many people never use it for cooking, but I often use it for soup and stir-fry, even for fried rice. Here is a very simple stir-fry dish you can try. It is easy to eat 1/2 of the whole Lettuce by two of you.

Makes

2 Servings

Ingredients

1/2 Iceberg Lettuce *Today it weighed 230g
3 Eggs
Salt & White Pepper
1 tablespoon Oil *I used Sunflower Oil

Method
  1. Cut Lettuce into chunky pieces. Finely chop Spring Onion. Whisk Eggs in a small bowl and season with Salt & White Pepper. Prepare everything before you start cooking.

  3. Add a small amount Sesame Oil to the pan and stir-fry Lettuce. Add Sake (Rice Wine) as it creates steam and it helps cooking process, and it also adds Umami.
