About Fried choy sum

Fried Choy Sum is a popular Asian vegetable dish, often found in Chinese cuisine. Made with tender choy sum, a leafy green vegetable similar to Chinese broccoli, it is stir-fried with garlic, light soy sauce, and optional seasonings like oyster sauce or sesame oil. This dish is quick to prepare and retains the vegetable's vibrant color and crisp texture. Choy sum is rich in vitamins A, C, and K, as well as fiber and antioxidants, making it a nutritious choice. The stir-frying method preserves its nutrients while adding delicious flavor and aroma. However, if prepared with high amounts of oil or sodium-heavy sauces, it can become less healthy, so moderation is key. Fried Choy Sum is often served as a side dish to complement rice or noodle-based main courses, offering a wholesome addition to any meal.
