Chinese olive vegetable (橄榄菜, gǎnlǎn cài) is a savory Chinese condiment made by slowly cooking Chinese olives with preserved mustard greens, garlic, and oil until rich and flavorful. Despite its name, it is not a fresh vegetable but a preserved relish with a salty, umami taste and a hint of bitterness from the olives. It is commonly used in Cantonese cooking to stir-fry vegetables, noodles, fried rice, and seafood, or simply served over steamed rice.
