Stir-Fried Garlic Chives With Chile
Makes 4 side-dish servings.

1 tablespoon peanut oil
3/4 lb green garlic chives (flat parts only), cut into 1 1/2" pieces (4 cups)
1 teaspoon dried hot red pepper flakes
1/4 teaspoon salt, or to taste

Heat wok over high heat until a drop of water vaporizes instantly
upon contact. Add oil, swirling to coat wok evenly, and heat until
hot and just smoking. Add chives and red pepper flakes and stir-fry,
letting chives rest on bottom and sides of wok several seconds
between stirs, until chives are tender and slightly browned, 2 to
4 minutes. Stir in salt. Serve over rice.

Note: Garlic chives (Chinese chives) are easy to grow in the garden,
but can also be found at an Asian grocer.
