Ingredients

  • 1 pound Chinese Broccoli
  • Water enough to submerge the Chinese broccoli
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil half is for boiling the Chinese broccoli, another half is for making the sauce
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh garlic minced

Instructions

  • Boil the Chinese broccoli for 1-2 minutes. (no longer than 2 minutes) Add in the oil and the salt to preserve the vibrance color. The stems will take longer than the leaves to cook through. When done, drain them both well in a colander then run them under cold water until they cool down enough to handle comfortably with your hands.
    boil
  • Place the Chinese broccoli on a plate and arrange for them to go in the same direction. Pat them dry with a paper towel. (optional)
  • Add remaining cooking oil to the wok (or nonstick pan) on medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic once the wok is hot.
