Categories     Stir-Fries

Time 17m

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon safflower or other high-heat vegetable oil
4 to 6 cloves garlic, minced
12 to 16 ounces bok choy (regular or baby bok choy)
1/2 cup teriyaki sauce, Korean BBQ sauce, or Bulgogi sauce (see note)
1 tablespoon dark sesame oil
1 tablespoon grated fresh or squeeze-bottle ginger
1 tablespoon cornstarch or arrowroot, optional
2 to 3 scallions, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Heat the oil in a stir-fry pan. Add the garlic and sauté over low heat for a minute or so.
  • Add the bok choy and turn the heat up to high. Stir-fry for another minute or so.
  • Stir in the teriyaki sauce, sesame oil, and ginger. Stir-fry until the bok choy is tender-crisp. Err on the side of less time than more; it should take only another minute or two.
  • If you find that liquid has pooled in the bottom of the pan, dissolve the cornstarch in a little water, and drizzle it into the pan. This should do the trick to thicken a small amount of liquid into a sauce.
  • Sprinkle in the the scallions and sesame seeds and serve at once.

STIR-FRIED BOK CHOY OR STURDY GREENS



Stir-Fried Bok Choy or Sturdy Greens image

This recipe works equally well with bok choy or sturdy greens, both of which have tough ribs and leaves that have a cruciferous flavor. I steam them for a minute before stir-frying so the leaves won't be too tough.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     weekday, side dish

Time 15m

Yield 3 to 4 servings as a side dish

Number Of Ingredients 11

12 to 16 ounces bok choy or sturdy greens, like collards, or packaged Southern greens mix
1/4 cup chicken broth, vegetable broth or water
1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1/4 teaspoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon peanut or canola oil
3 garlic cloves, smashed with the flat side of a chef's knife or minced
1 slice ginger, smashed with the flat side of a chef's knife or minced
Salt to taste
1/4 teaspoon sugar
1 to 2 teaspoons sesame seeds, to taste

Steps:

  • If using bok choy, trim off the bottoms and separate into stalks. Rinse if necessary and drain on paper towels. Cut crosswise into 2-inch pieces. If using collard greens, stem, discard stems and chop the leaves coarsely. Bring an inch of water to a boil in the bottom of a steamer, and place the bok choy or greens in the steamer basket. Steam 1 minute, remove from the heat and rinse with cold water. Squeeze out excess water and drain on a kitchen towel.
  • Combine the broth or water, rice wine or sherry, soy sauce and cornstarch in a small bowl and place within arm's reach of your pan. Have the remaining ingredients measured out and near the pan.
  • Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or a 12-inch skillet over high heat until a drop of water evaporates within a second or two when added to the pan. Swirl in the oil by adding it to the sides of the pan and swirling the pan, then add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 10 seconds, until fragrant. Add the bok choy or greens, sprinkle with salt and the sugar, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds. Stir the cornstarch mixture and swirl into the wok, then stir-fry 1 minute, or until the greens are just tender. Sprinkle on the sesame seeds. Remove from the heat and serve.

STIR-FRIED SESAME BABY BOK CHOY



Stir-Fried Sesame Baby Bok Choy image

In this bok choy recipe, you'll stir fry the vegetables with soy sauce, ginger, and garlic, and drizzle with sesame oil. It's a great side dish.

Provided by Diana Kuan

Yield Serves 4 as part of a multicourse meal

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound baby bok choy
1½ tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Chinese rice wine or dry sherry
½ teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon peanut or vegetable oil
1 garlic clove, minced
1 (1-inch) piece fresh ginger, peeled and minced
2 teaspoons sesame oil

Steps:

  • Trim and discard the rough bottoms from the baby bok choy. Separate the leaves, rinse, and pat dry.
  • In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice wine, and sugar. Set aside.
  • Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat until a bead of water sizzles and evaporates on contact. Add the peanut oil and swirl to coat the bottom and sides. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry until aromatic, 20 to 30 seconds. Add the bok choy and stir-fry for about 2 minutes, until crisp-tender. Add the soy sauce mixture and cook for another 30 seconds. Turn off the heat, and drizzle with sesame oil. Transfer to a serving plate and serve hot.

Tips:

  • Select the freshest bok choy: Look for vibrant green leaves and crisp stalks. Avoid any wilted or yellowing leaves.
  • Wash the bok choy thoroughly: Separate the leaves from the stalks and rinse them under cold running water. Remove any dirt or debris.
  • Cut the bok choy properly: Cut the bok choy stalks into 1-2 inch pieces and the leaves into 1-2 inch strips. This ensures even cooking.
  • Use a well-seasoned wok or large skillet: A well-seasoned wok or skillet will help prevent the bok choy from sticking and burning.
  • Stir-fry over high heat: High heat is essential for quick and even cooking. Make sure your wok or skillet is very hot before adding the bok choy.
  • Add a little oil: A small amount of oil, such as vegetable oil or sesame oil, will help prevent the bok choy from sticking to the pan.
  • Stir-fry in batches: If you're cooking a large quantity of bok choy, stir-fry it in batches to avoid overcrowding the pan. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking.
  • Don't overcook the bok choy: Bok choy should be cooked until it is tender-crisp, but still retains its vibrant green color. Overcooking will make it limp and mushy.
  • Season to taste: Season the bok choy with salt, pepper, and other desired seasonings to taste. You can also add a splash of soy sauce or oyster sauce for extra flavor.

Conclusion:

Stir-fried bok choy with ginger and garlic is a quick, easy, and healthy side dish that can be enjoyed as part of a larger meal or as a light lunch or dinner. With its vibrant green color, crisp texture, and delicious flavor, bok choy is a versatile vegetable that can be paired with a variety of proteins and grains. Whether you're looking for a simple weeknight meal or a more elaborate dish to impress your guests, stir-fried bok choy is a great option. So next time you're looking for a healthy and delicious side dish, give this stir-fried bok choy with ginger and garlic a try. You won't be disappointed!
