Cantonese style blanched lettuce

Cantonese style blanched lettuce is very popular because it is simple to make but can highlight the delicious taste. The "blanching" method uses boiling water or soup to quickly cook the lettuce, which retains its fresh taste and sweet juice to the greatest extent. The key is seasoning. Soy sauce, oyster sauce and a little sugar are added to bring out the freshness, and then hot oil is poured to enhance the aroma. The salty and fresh sauce blends with the sweetness of the lettuce, with rich layers without being heavy. It has a refreshing taste, can balance greasy dishes, and let people taste the original flavor of vegetables.
