Instructions

1. 1

   Thinly slice the garlic and set aside. Heat oil in a wok or large pan over medium heat, then carefully fry the garlic slices until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

2. 2

   Rinse the spring vegetables and trim the ends. Rinse the bean sprouts thoroughly and drain well.

3. 3

   Shred the salted fish fillets into thin strips by hand or with a fork, removing any bones.

4. 4

   Heat the remaining oil in the wok over high heat. Add the spring vegetables and stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly tender but still crisp.

5. 5

   Add the bean sprouts and shredded salted fish. Continue stir-frying for 1 minute.

6. 6

   Pour in the light soy sauce, sugar, and water. Toss everything together and cook for another 1 minute until the liquid is mostly absorbed.

7. 7

   Drizzle with sesame oil and toss. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish generously with the crispy garlic chips.
