Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Broccoli
- 3 pieces Garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Light soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
Instructions
Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into bite-sized florets. Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely.
In a small bowl, mix the oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, and water to create the sauce. Set aside.
Bring a pot of water to a boil and add the salt. Blanch the broccoli florets in the boiling water for about 1 minute, then drain and transfer them to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain once cooled.
Heat the vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and stir-fry until it becomes fragrant, about 15-20 seconds.
Add the blanched broccoli to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, making sure to coat the broccoli evenly in the garlic-infused oil.
Pour the prepared sauce over the broccoli and stir well to ensure everything is evenly coated. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate. Serve warm as a side dish or pair with steamed rice for a complete meal.
