Stir-fried pork with wasp vegetables

Here's a step-by-step recipe for stir-fried pork with water spinach, complete with pictures and 8 steps. First, wash and soak the dried water spinach in advance. When needed, drain and chop it (ideally overnight; if you don't have time, soak the water spinach first, then cook other dishes with it, and drain and chop it after step six – that's how my mom does it).

    Step 1

    Wash and soak the dried water spinach in advance. When you need it, take it out and chop it. (It's best to do this overnight. If you don't have time, soak the water spinach first, cook other dishes, and then take it out and chop it after step six. That's how my mom does it.)
