Stir Fried Pechay (Napa Cabbage)

Super fast and easy Chinese cabbage recipe with pork cutlets. Best to use a wok and with fire. Hence its very quick because this stir fry is done in high heat setting.
NOTE: ABOUT CHINESE CABBAGES and the word "PECHAY" 😊
There are two common Chinese cabbages available: one is the Napa Cabbage and the Bok Choy. If you will google the two types, you will immediately notice the difference in form, leaves and color of both types.
On another hand, I used the word "Pechay" as this is our local term for the Chinese cabbage. I should have thought of this instead to use a more universal term (thanks to cookpad admin for reminding me. Sorry ✌) The word Pechay is derived from the Fokkien term for Chinese cabbage "Pe-tsai". Pe means white and Tsai means vegetables. I'm Filipino but we have adapted some Fokkien terms because there are many Fokkien speaking Fil-Chinese citizens in our country.

Spicy Szechuan Stir-Fried Cabbage Spicy Szechuan Stir-Fried Cabbage
Spicy Szechuan Stir-Fried Cabbage is packed with bold flavors—spicy, tingly, and super fragrant! It’s a quick and easy dish that takes less than 15 minutes to make. The best part? Tearing the cabbage by hand is surprisingly fun and helps it soak up all the flavors. Just chop some scallions, garlic, and ginger, heat up the oil, stir-fry the spices, then toss in everything else. Cook until the cabbage is tender but still crisp, add a splash of vinegar, and finish with a drizzle of chili oil. That’s it! So simple, so good—perfect with a bowl of rice! Enjoy! Dandanyummyfood -
