This is one of those dishes that every family seems to know and can be easier prepared within thirty minutes. Before I came to Australia I don't think I have had garlic shoots very often. But they are really yummy and nutritious vegetables. Rich in fibre, vitamins and antioxidants. And I really like their subtle spiciness and the crunchy texture. And, unlike some leafy vegetables, they retain their shape and crunchiness very well after reheating so they are good for lunchbox.
