Everyone is no stranger to folic acid, and we often hear doctors or experts say that women who are trying to get pregnant and pregnant should supplement folic acid. But many people don't know what folic acid really is. In fact, it is a water-soluble vitamin, which belongs to vitamin B12, and the lack of this vitamin in the human body may cause symptoms such as anemia, menstrual disorders, inflammation of the tongue, weakness of the lower limbs, clumsiness, dizziness and other symptoms. Not only pregnant women need folic acid supplementation, but also middle-aged and elderly people also need folic acid supplementation.
In fact, there are many foods rich in folic acid hidden around us, such as lettuce, which has a very high content of folic acid. At the same time, it is also rich in vitamin C, calcium, magnesium, potassium and other trace elements. This kind of "folic acid champion dish" hidden around you has a strong muscle, two strengthens the liver and kidneys, and three strengthens immunity, so it is recommended that middle-aged and elderly people eat more.
Lettuce, in some places is called lettuce, in fact, lettuce is a general term for lettuce, lettuce, oily lettuce and other vegetables. In our local area, we call it "bamboo shoot dish" because its texture is as crisp and tender and delicious as bamboo shoots.
Here's a simple recipe: fried lettuce with black fungus
Ingredients: 1 lettuce, black fungus, minced garlic.
Seasoning: salt, monosodium glutamate, chicken juice, water starch, cooking oil.
1. A lettuce is just fried on a plate, and I used to dislike buying lettuce because I felt that it was very troublesome to peel lettuce. Later, I found out that you could ask the merchant to help with peeling. So take it home and clean up the remaining lettuce skin, wash it and cut it into pieces for later use. I used a wolf tooth knife to cut into wolf tooth strips, which are beautiful in shape and flavorful. Prepare some black fungus for soaking and washing.
2. Boil water in a pot, add a spoonful of salt, then put in lettuce and black fungus to blanch, boil for about 2 minutes, remove after cooking, and rinse with cold water to maintain the green color and crisp taste of lettuce. Then chop some minced garlic and set aside
3. Heat the oil in a pot, add the minced garlic first, and fry the minced garlic over low heat until fragrant. Pay attention to the heat and be careful to scorch the garlic.
4. Put the blanched lettuce and black fungus into the pot together, and stir-fry quickly over high heat for about two or three minutes. Add a spoonful of salt, monosodium glutamate and chicken juice to taste, stir-fry for 2 minutes.
5. Finally, pour some water starch and hook a thin thickener to get out of the pot.
Lettuce must be crunchy to be delicious, if it is cooked for too long, the texture will be rotten. In addition, lettuce contains a certain amount of oxalic acid, so it needs to be blanched in water.
