Stir-fried Chinese leek flower with prawns

Chinese leek flowers are sweet, thus a simple stir-fry with  ingredients such as mushrooms, meat slices, chicken gizzard or liver and prawns will make a tasty delicious dish.


What you need:
1 bundle of Chinese leek flower
1/2 cup prawns (peeled and deveined)
2 shallots (sliced)
2 cloves garlic (chopped)
Chicken stock granules
2 tbsp cooking oil
Some water for cooking

Few simple steps:

  1. Break the leek flower with fingers to your preferred length, at the same time peeling off the hard skin which is nearing towards the tip of the flower.  If the leek flower are still fresh it doesn't need much peeling.  Wash and drain.

  3. Add in leek flower, stir-fry for about 1 minute, then add in prawns, chicken stock granules and stir to mix until well combined.

  5. Off the heat, dish and serve.
