Ingredients

Steps

1. 1 Prepare two or three small winter bamboo shoots, two sausages or a piece of bacon. Chop the garlic and green onions and set aside.

   

2. 2 Cut the winter bamboo shoots lengthwise in the middle and remove the old skin, roots and rough parts around them. If the winter bamboo shoots are relatively large, cut them into sections horizontally first, and then slice them lengthwise with a knife.

   

3. 3 Cut the bamboo shoots and sausage into thick slices.

   

4. 4 Remove the astringent taste of bamboo shoot slices: Add water and 1 tablespoon of salt to a small pot, pour in the bamboo shoot slices, bring to a boil over high heat, change the water, and cook again for about 10 minutes. Take out the bamboo shoot slices and soak them in cold water.

   

5. 5 On the other side, put two pieces of pig fat in the wok and stir-fry the lard over low heat. If there is ready-made lard, use it directly. Remove the fried fat, leaving only the melted lard in the pot. Bamboo shoots prefer oil, so frying them with lard is more moist and fragrant than using vegetable oil.

   

6. 6 Pour the minced garlic into the pot, sauté until fragrant, then add the drained bamboo shoots, add half a spoonful of salt, and stir-fry over high heat. The salt must be added first. Firstly, the bamboo shoot slices are not easy to taste. Secondly, if you add the sausage and then add salt, the sausage itself will be salty, and it will be too salty when added together.

   

7. 7 Add the sausage and green onions and stir-fry. You can also add garlic sprouts and stir-fry. You can adjust the ingredients for home-cooked dishes according to your personal taste.

   

8. 8 Before serving, pour half a spoonful of oyster sauce and stir well, then serve. If you don’t have oyster sauce, you can also use light soy sauce. The texture of oyster sauce is relatively thick and easy to hang on the bamboo shoots. It is more flavorful than using thin soy sauce and light soy sauce.
