Tips:

  • Choose fresh, tender broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns that are deep green in color and have tightly closed florets. Avoid crowns that are yellowing or have wilted florets.
  • Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly and make them easier to eat.
  • Blanch the broccoli before stir-frying: This will help preserve the broccoli's bright green color and crisp texture.
  • Use a hot wok or skillet: This will help the broccoli cook quickly and evenly.
  • Add the broccoli to the wok or skillet in a single layer: This will help prevent the broccoli from steaming instead of stir-frying.
  • Stir-fry the broccoli for only a few minutes: Overcooking will make the broccoli mushy.
  • Add the sauce to the wok or skillet and stir-fry until the broccoli is evenly coated: The sauce should be thick and glossy.
  • Garnish the broccoli with sesame seeds and dried red pepper flakes: This will add a nutty flavor and a touch of heat.

Conclusion:

This broccoli with sesame seeds and dried red pepper is a quick and easy side dish that is packed with flavor. It is perfect for a weeknight meal or a potluck dinner. The broccoli is blanched before stir-frying, which helps to preserve its bright green color and crisp texture.

The sesame seeds and dried red pepper flakes add a nutty flavor and a touch of heat.
