Tips:
1. Lettuce should not be fried every time. I use a 37 cm diameter wok, and I can only fry 1 lettuce each time. If there are many people, I will choose to fry 2 dishes.
2. Start the pan with garlic, remember to put it when the oil is cold, if it is not easy to paste, especially when using garlic.
3. Don't press the vegetables with too much oil. When frying the lettuce, you can put more oil in the beginning. Don't worry, after 2-3 drains, the oil used to start the pot has actually been lost a lot.
4. When it comes out of the pan, remember to put the fried lettuce into the plate by pinching, so that the excess water can be drained again. In this way, the lettuce will not be boiled by the water anymore during the serving process and cause blackening. The physics class once told us that the specific heat capacity of water is the highest among all substances.
