Stir Fried Garlic Stems With Chinese Sausage 蒜苗炒臘腸



This is my second post using garlic stem (蒜苗, pronounced suan miao) also known as garlic scapes in The United States. The delicious crisp and chive like stems taste the best when they are simply stir fry with Chinese bacon or any salty cured meat. I used Chinese sausage in this recipe, for a vegetarian version click HERE
Having a mention or "shout out" by other bloggers mean a lot to a new blogger like myself; I would like to thank a few of these wonderful blogger friends (whose their blogs I adore) who did just that in the past one week....
My friend Daniel from Bubbles And Squeaks - KL Hokkien Noodles
My dear friend Makcik Manggis from Jom Masak...Jom Makan-Makan - Curry Laksa
My new friend Ija from Arah - Curry Laksa
A big thank you to everyone and please spend some time checking out these amazing blogs!

  6. Are the sausages you use also called wax meats? That's the only kind of sausages I see at my Asian market...very simple dish, but I'm sure it's full of flavor.
