40g
8 cups celery
810g
3/4 cup water
180g

1.05g
3/4 tsp salt
4.50g
3 tbsp honey
60g

Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Wash and chop the fresh parsley.
- Slice the celery into thin, diagonal pieces, about 1/4-inch thick.
2. Make the Sauce:
- In a small bowl, combine the lemon juice and honey. Mix well until the honey is fully dissolved.
3. Heat the Oil:
- Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add the olive oil and allow it to heat up for about a minute.
4. Cook the Celery:
- Add the sliced celery to the heated skillet.
- Stir-fry the celery for about 5 minutes, or until it begins to soften but still retains a slight crunch.
5. Add Seasonings:
- Add the water, salt, and black pepper to the skillet.
- Stir well to combine and allow the mixture to cook for another 2-3 minutes, until the water begins to evaporate.
6. Incorporate the Sauce:
- Pour the lemon-honey mixture over the stir-fried celery.
- Toss everything together to ensure the celery is well-coated with the sauce.
- Continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes, letting the flavors meld together.
7. Finish with Parsley:
- Remove the skillet from heat.
- Sprinkle the chopped parsley over the stir-fry and give it a final toss.
8. Serve:
- Transfer the honey-lemon celery stir-fry to a serving dish.
- Serve immediately, either as a side dish or a light, fresh entrée.

Tips:

- Ensure you slice the celery evenly for uniform cooking.

- Use fresh lemon juice and parsley for the best flavor.
