Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Broccolini
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 clove Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Rinse the broccolini under cold water and trim the tough ends from the stalks.
Fill a pot with 2-3 inches of water and bring to a boil. Place a steamer basket over the pot, making sure the water does not touch the basket.
Add the broccolini to the steamer basket, cover with a lid, and steam for 5-7 minutes until tender but still vibrant green.
While the broccolini steams, prepare the honey soy sauce. In a small saucepan over medium heat, combine the soy sauce, honey, sesame oil, minced garlic, and water.
Stir the sauce continuously for 2-3 minutes until slightly thickened. Remove from heat.
Transfer the steamed broccolini to a serving plate and drizzle with the honey soy sauce.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the top as an optional garnish. Serve warm and enjoy!
