Rinse the perilla leaves under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.

Pat the leaves dry with a clean kitchen towel or paper towel.

Place your skillet over medium heat and add the vegetable oil.

Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Carefully add the perilla leaves to the skillet and stir gently to coat with the garlic and oil.

Drizzle in the soy sauce, sesame oil, and sugar.

Sauté the leaves for about 3-5 minutes until they are wilted but still vibrant.

Season with salt and pepper according to your preference.
