Steps
-
To prepare the luffa, roughly peel the skin, leaving little strips of skin remaining. Cut into bite-sized pieces. If using zucchini, trim and cut into bite-sized pieces (no need to peel).
-
Heat the oil in a wok or frying pan over high heat. Add the garlic and stir-fry for a couple of seconds. Add the luffa or zucchini, 4 tablespoons of water, fish sauce, sugar and white pepper. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes or until the vegetable pieces are starting to soften. Then add the eggs and stir-fry until cooked. Remove from heat and serve.
