Spicy Bok Choy in Garlic Sauce image

Bok Choy is one of my favorite vegetables. It has its own spiciness that is complimented by the sweetness of the sauce in this recipe. I like to serve this with grilled shrimp and steamed rice. For variety, I sometimes add a small amount of lemon zest just before serving.

Provided by Spyce

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound bok choy
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Trim off the ends of the bok choy and chop, keeping the white parts separate from the green as they will need to cook longer. Rinse and spin or pat dry. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl or cup, stir together the vegetable oil and sesame oil. In a separate larger bowl, stir together the water, ginger, garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and red pepper flakes. Set this aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the bok choy stems first; stir fry for a few minutes or until the pieces start to turn a pale green. When stems are almost cooked, add the leaves; cook and stir until leaves are wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the bok choy to a serving dish. Pour the sauce into the skillet or wok, and set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour over the bok choy and toss lightly to coat.

Tips:

  • Choose the right bok choy: Look for bok choy that is fresh and vibrant green in color. Avoid any bok choy that is wilted or has yellowing leaves.
  • Wash the bok choy thoroughly: Before cooking, rinse the bok choy under cold water to remove any dirt or debris.
  • Cut the bok choy properly: Cut the bok choy into 1-inch pieces, separating the white and green parts. This will help ensure that the bok choy cooks evenly.
  • Use a large skillet or wok: A large skillet or wok will help ensure that the bok choy has enough space to cook properly.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help to sear the bok choy and prevent it from becoming soggy.
  • Add the bok choy to the skillet or wok: Once the oil is hot, add the bok choy to the skillet or wok and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the bok choy is tender-crisp.
  • Add sauce or seasonings: Once the bok choy is cooked, you can add sauce or seasonings of your choice. Some popular options include soy sauce, oyster sauce, garlic, and ginger.
  • Serve immediately: Sautéed bok choy is best served immediately. It can be served as a side dish or as part of a main course.

Conclusion:

Sautéed bok choy is a quick and easy dish that is packed with flavor. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables and can be enjoyed as a side dish or as part of a main course. With its simple ingredients and easy-to-follow instructions, this recipe is a great option for beginners and experienced cooks alike.
