1. 1

   Prepare the water spinach by trimming off tough ends and cutting into 2-inch lengths. Wash thoroughly.

   Heat cooking oil in a wok over high heat until smoking. Add minced garlic and stir-fry quickly until fragrant, about 10-15 seconds.

4. 4

   Add the water spinach to the wok. Stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until the leaves start to wilt.

5. 5

   Pour the mashed fermented bean curd mixture over the water spinach. Continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, tossing everything to combine well, until the water spinach is tender-crisp. Serve hot.
