Chinese Style Broccoli & Zucchini Stir-Fry image

This is another one of my favorite sides to make. The original recipe doesn't call for zucchini but I decided to add it in tonight (seen in pic). You can omit the zucchini and just use the broccoli. I'm sure other veggies can be thrown into the wok also. In place of soy sauce, I use Braggs Liquid Amino. Also, you can buy...

Number Of Ingredients 0

Steps:

  • 1. Boil a large pot of water, and blanch broccoli for half a minute. Drain and set aside. 2. Heat oil in a wok, and sauté garlic, onion and ginger until fragrant. Add carrots, mushrooms and 2-3 tbsp water. Cook for two minutes, stirring frequently. 3. When the vegetables are softened, add the broccoli, seasoning, a bit more water, and cook for another two minutes (keep stirring). Add the diluted cornstarch and mix well. Boil the sauce for a minute, until it thickens. 4. Taste and adjust seasonings, if necessary. Enjoy! Optional for serving: Sprinkle with toasted sesame seeds.

Tips for Cooking Chinese-Style Broccoli:

  • Choose the right broccoli: Look for broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
  • Wash the broccoli thoroughly: Rinse the broccoli under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Cut the broccoli into 1-inch florets.
  • Blanch the broccoli (optional): Blanching the broccoli helps to preserve its color and texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until they are bright green. Immediately remove the broccoli from the boiling water and plunge it into a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
  • Stir-fry the broccoli: Heat a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the broccoli florets and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until they are tender-crisp.
  • Add sauce or seasonings: Once the broccoli is cooked, add your desired sauce or seasonings. Some popular options include soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic sauce, or a simple mixture of salt and pepper.
  • Serve immediately: Chinese-style broccoli is best served immediately, while it is still hot and crispy.

Conclusion:

Chinese-style broccoli is a delicious and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed with a variety of main courses. It is a good source of vitamins, minerals, and fiber. The key to making great Chinese-style broccoli is to use fresh, high-quality ingredients and to cook it quickly over high heat. With a few simple tips, you can easily make this dish at home.
