SIAMESE WATERCRESS WITH YELLOW BEANS AND GARLIC



Siamese Watercress With Yellow Beans and Garlic image

The Thai name is "Pat Pak Bung Fy Daeng". From David Thompson's book, Classic Thai Cuisine. David says, "This stir-fry is a favourite of the Thais. Often they crumble a little roasted kapi (shrimp paste) and a few dried prawns (shrimp) into this dish." He also says that any green vegetable can be used in place of the Siamese watercress, such as spinach or asparagus.

STIR-FRIED WATERCRESS WITH BEAN SAUCE



Stir-Fried Watercress with Bean Sauce image

Stir-fried vegetables are almost as common in Southeast Asia as they are in China, and even the spices are similar. But the addition of dried shrimp and the use of nam pla are dead giveaways that this dish is from Indochina. It's usually made on the fiery side, so feel free to increase the chiles if you like. Information on fish sauces like nam pla is on page 500\. Other vegetables you can prepare this way: Green beans, parboiled broccoli or cauliflower, or a mixture of onions and peppers. All will take a little longer than fast-cooking watercress.

Yield makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon dried shrimp (page 185), optional
2 small dried red chiles, or to taste
2 garlic cloves, peeled
2 shallots, roughly chopped
2 bunches of watercress, trimmed and roughly chopped
2 tablespoons corn, grapeseed, or other neutral oil, as needed
2 tablespoons yellow bean sauce (available at Chinese and Southeast Asian markets)
1 tablespoon sugar
2 tablespoons nam pla, or to taste
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, or to taste
Salt if necessary
About 1/2 cup chopped fresh basil leaves, preferably Thai

Steps:

  • If you're using them, soak the dried shrimp in hot water to cover until softened, just a few minutes. Combine them in a small food processor with the chiles, garlic, and shallots and process to a paste. Toss with the watercress.
  • Put the oil in a skillet or wok over high heat; a minute later, add the watercress and paste. Cook, stirring almost constantly, for about a minute, or until the watercress wilts. Stir in 2 tablespoons water, then the bean sauce, sugar, nam pla, and pepper; cook for 10 seconds, then turn off the heat.
  • Taste and add salt or other seasoning as necessary. Stir in the basil and serve.
