Celery and Lily
This refreshing and simple stir-fry combines the delicate bitterness of dried lily bulbs with the crisp freshness of celery for a light yet flavorful dish. Perfect for a quick and healthy meal, the recipe starts by soaking and blanching the lily bulbs to soften their texture and mellow their natural bitterness. A quick stir-fry in aromatic peanut oil at just the right temperature ensures the vegetables retain their crunch while absorbing the savory notes of salt and chicken essence. The result is a beautifully balanced dish—crisp celery and tender lily bulbs with a subtle, satisfying bitterness that pairs wonderfully with steamed rice or as a side to richer mains. Easy to prepare yet packed with unique flavors, this stir-fry is a must-try for anyone looking to enjoy a wholesome, vegetable-forward dish in minutes.
