When frying celery, do you need to blanch it? Many people do it wrong. No wonder celery tastes unpalatable and clogs teeth.

My children are very fond of eating celery recently. In addition, celery is a seasonal vegetable that is very delicious and very tender. Therefore, the celery I have bought several times recently tastes very fresh and delicious when fried. There is no trace of celery inside. No, it won't clog your teeth, it's very delicious. Many friends don’t know whether to blanch celery when frying it. Many people do it wrong, so the fried celery is chewy and hard, which is particularly unpalatable. Today I will share a delicious way to cook celery.

If you want to make delicious fried celery, you must first choose very tender celery. When buying, you should pay attention to whether the leaves of the celery are fresh and whether there is moisture in the stems of the celery. The more moisture there is, the more tender the celery will be. Celery tastes better, so when buying celery, be sure to buy heavier ones. This means it has more moisture and will be more tender and fragrant when fried.

Ingredients preparation

Celery, pork, fungus, salt, light soy sauce, chicken essence, vegetable oil, ginger, green onions.

Cooking steps

①? First remove the celery leaves, then clean the soily part at the root, and then cut it into celery segments of about two centimeters.

② Take the pork out of the refrigerator in advance, let it thaw at room temperature under natural conditions, and then cut it into thin slices of about two centimeters.

③ Just use cold water to soak the fungus. Soak it in cold water for 15 minutes, so that the fungus will be very soft and soaked. Then clean it and cut the green onions into shreds. , ginger is also cut into thin strips.

④ Pour water into the pot, boil the water first, then add celery and blanch it for two minutes. After blanching, the celery will become greener, more tender and fragrant, and will also absorb the celery. With more moisture, it will taste more tender.

⑤ Pour vegetable oil into the pot and heat it to 60% heat. First put in the ginger and green onions and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add the pork and start to stir-fry. Keep the fire low and slowly stir-fry the pork. When the color turns white, add light soy sauce to enhance the flavor.

⑥After that, add the celery and start stir-frying, keep the fire high and stir-fry quickly.

⑦ Then add the fungus and stir-fry together. At this time, you can add a little water, because if the fungus itself has no water, it will easily make a crackling sound. Adding water can make the fungus softer and tender. It tastes better when fried.

⑧After all the ingredients in the pot are cooked, sprinkle with salt and chicken essence, stir well, and a very delicious fried fungus with celery is ready. The whole dish is very tender and fragrant. And celery is also very tender and crispy. If you like it, try it!

Cooking tips?

⒈When stir-frying celery, you still need to blanch it in advance, because celery itself is rich in crude fiber. If you don’t blanch it, Firstly, the water content is not that high. Secondly, the fiber inside is very hard. After blanching, the celery becomes more green and very tender, so it tastes better.

⒉ When frying the fungus, be sure to add some more water to fry together, so that the fungus can be cooked quickly. If it is too dry, frying the fungus will be very slow.
