Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 heads Baby bok choy
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 1 piece (1-inch) Ginger
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili flakes (optional)
Instructions
Wash the baby bok choy thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt. Slice each head in half lengthwise, and then slice into quarters if they are particularly large.
Peel and finely mince the garlic. Grate or finely mince the ginger.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, water, and cornstarch. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and ginger to the hot oil, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Add the baby bok choy to the skillet and toss to coat it evenly in the oil. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until the leaves start to wilt and the stems become tender but still slightly crisp.
Pour the sauce mixture over the baby bok choy and toss to evenly coat. Stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the bok choy is fully cooked.
If using red chili flakes, sprinkle them in and stir briefly to distribute.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir fry to a serving dish. Serve immediately as a side dish or over steamed rice for a light main course.
