1 package of shanghai bok choy, approximately 8 small to medium heads
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon of minced garlic

  • Add 1 cup of vegetable broth or water. Add the second cup if you think you need it.
  • Turn the heat to low and cover the pot to allow the bok choy to steam. Open the pot every couple of minutes to stir. Add sea salt, to taste.
  • Cook until the bok choy leaves are limp but still a vibrant green colour. Drizzle with sesame oil. Toss and serve.
