    STIR FRY OKRA BLACK FUNGUS RECIPE CHINESE FOOD Nomss.com Delicious Food Photography Healthy Travel Lifestyle

    One of my favorite vegetables is Okra. I love the texture, the nutritional benefits and also how easy it is to prepare. I recently had this dish at a Chinese restaurant over dim sum and absolutely feel in love with it. Stir Fry Okra Black Fungus Recipe 秋葵炒雲耳 is super easy to make and can be done in 10 mins with maybe 15 min including prep time.

    Health Benefits Of Okra

    Okra has a lot of nutritional benefits and it is great for diabetes. It has the ability to lower total cholesterol levels, blood pressure and also improve digestive health. Okra contains potassium, vitamin B, vitamin C, folic acid, and calcium. It’s low in calories and has a high dietary fiber content.

    Health Benefits Of Black Tremella Fungus 雲耳 

    Another favorite Chinese herbal ingredient of mine is the black tremella fungus 雲耳 (sometimes also referred to Jew's ear or Judas Ear). Black Tremella Fungus improves circulation that inhibits blood blotting, lowers cholesterol, dryness in throat, and it is contains trace mineral germanium which has anti-viral / anti-tumor effects.

    Aside from okra, black tremella fungus, I usually like to add onions into my stir fry also. To cook this dish, heat up oil on medium heat and sauté minced garlic and ginger. Once sweated out, add in your okra and stir fry for about 3 to 5 minutes.

    Next add in your previously soaked black fungus and toss. Next add in dark and light soy sauce and some cornstarch to thicken the sauce. Toss for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens or evaporates!

      Just to let you know, the part where you add the okra in to fry is missing from the actual recipe 🙂
