Ingredients
Rice Wine-Oyster Sauce
-
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice wine (see Tip) or dry sherry
-
2 teaspoons oyster-flavored sauce or vegetarian oyster sauce
-
¼ teaspoon sugar
-
⅛ teaspoon salt
Watercress Stir-Fry
-
2 tablespoons canola oil
-
2 medium cloves garlic, smashed
-
24 cups watercress (14 ounces or about 6 bunches) or 16 cups spinach, tough stems trimmed
-
1 teaspoon sesame oil
Directions
-
To prepare the sauce: Whisk rice wine, oyster sauce, sugar and salt in a small bowl.
-
To prepare the watercress: Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or large skillet over high heat until a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl canola oil into the pan, add garlic and stir-fry for 10 seconds. Add watercress and stir-fry until it just begins to wilt, about 1 minute. (The wok will become very full as the watercress is added; stir constantly to avoid scorching the greens.) Stir the Rice Wine-Oyster Sauce and swirl it into the pan; stir-fry until the watercress is just tender but still bright green, 1 to 2 minutes. Stir in sesame oil. Remove garlic. Serve immediately.
Tips
Make Ahead Tip: Cover and refrigerate the sauce (Step 1) for up to 1 week; wash and dry watercress up to 4 hours ahead.
Shao Hsing (or Shaoxing) is a seasoned rice wine. It is available in most Asian specialty markets and some larger supermarkets in the Asian section. If unavailable, dry sherry is an acceptable substitute.

Nutrition information is calculated by a registered dietitian using an ingredient database but should be considered an estimate.
* Daily Values (DVs) are the recommended amounts of nutrients to consume each day. Percent Daily Value (%DV) found on nutrition labels tells you how much a serving of a particular food or recipe contributes to each of those total recommended amounts. Per the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), the daily value is based on a standard 2,000 calorie diet. Depending on your calorie needs or if you have a health condition, you may need more or less of particular nutrients. (For example, it’s recommended that people following a heart-healthy diet eat less sodium on a daily basis compared to those following a standard diet.)
