In a wok or large pan, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant but not burnt.
Step 2
Add the minced pork to the pan and break it up with a spatula. Stir-fry until the pork is fully cooked and browned, about 2-3 minutes.

Stir in the fermented soy beans and cook for another minute, mixing it thoroughly with the pork. Toss in the cut morning glory and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes to retain its bright green colour and crisp texture.
