Luffa

This simple yet flavorful stir-fried luffa recipe is a delicious way to enjoy fresh, seasonal vegetables. Tender luffa is peeled and quickly stir-fried with fragrant garlic and ginger, creating a dish with the perfect balance of crisp texture and savory depth. The key is heating the wok with cold oil to infuse the aromatics, then stir-frying the luffa until it reaches a delightful stickiness. A final sprinkle of salt enhances the natural sweetness of the luffa, while juicy cherry tomatoes add a bright, refreshing contrast. With minimal ingredients and quick cooking, this dish is both healthy and satisfying—perfect as a light side or a vegan main. The combination of garlicky richness and the luffa’s delicate flavor makes this stir-fry truly irresistible. Serve it fresh from the wok for a vibrant, tasty meal!
