- 1 tbsp vegetable oil, plus more for deep frying
- 2 pak choi, quartered
- 1 garlic clove, crushed
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 2 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
- 50g/1žoz cashew nuts, toasted
- Heat one tablespoon of the vegetable oil in a wok and sautĂŠ the pak choi for one minute. Add the garlic and cook for another minute. Add the soy sauce and stir well.
- Heat the oil in a deep, heavy-bottom saucepan. It is ready when a breadcrumb sizzles gently in it. (CAUTION: hot oil can be dangerous; do not leave unattended.) Deep fry the shallots in the oil until golden. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
- To serve, spoon the pak choi onto a plate and sprinkle over the crispy shallots and cashew nuts.
