Instructions
-
Prepare the Vegetables: Start by washing and cutting the carrots, young corn, broccoli, and Chinese mustard greens into bite-sized pieces. Ensure all vegetables are clean and ready for cooking.
-
-
Blanch the Vegetables: Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the prepared vegetables. Blanch them for just a few minutes until they are slightly wilted, then drain and set aside. This step enhances their color and tenderness.
-
Slice the Aromatics: Finely slice the garlic and red shallots. These aromatics will add a wonderful depth of flavor to the dish.
-
Sauté the Aromatics: In a large skillet or wok, heat a tablespoon of oil over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic and red shallots, sautéing them until fragrant and translucent. Be careful not to burn them, as this can impart a bitter flavor.
-
Add the Vegetables: Once the aromatics are ready, add the blanched vegetables to the skillet. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes to combine the flavors.
-
Season the Dish: Add sugar, salt, pepper, oyster sauce, and ketchup to the vegetables according to your taste preferences. Stir well to ensure the vegetables are evenly coated with the seasonings.
-
Incorporate Water: If you prefer a saucier dish, add a splash of water to the skillet. This will create a delicious sauce that clings to the vegetables.
-
Create Space for Eggs: Push the vegetable mixture to the side of the skillet, creating space in the center. Crack the egg into this space and scramble it gently, mixing it with the vegetables as it cooks.
-
Finish Cooking: Allow the dish to cook for a few more minutes, letting the flavors meld together and the water reduce slightly. The vegetables should be tender yet crisp, and the egg fully cooked.
-
Serve: Once everything is well combined and cooked to your liking, remove the skillet from the heat. Transfer your stir-fried vegetables and eggs to a serving platter and enjoy this vibrant, nutritious dish hot, either on its own or with steamed rice.
This Orak-arik Sayuran dan Telur not only showcases the beauty of fresh vegetables but also makes for a perfect side dish or a light meal. The combination of flavors and textures is sure to please everyone at the table. Happy cooking!
