Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Broccoli
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 tablespoons Thai oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon Fish sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 pieces Lime wedges (optional, for serving)
Instructions
Wash the broccoli thoroughly and cut it into bite-sized florets. Peel the tough outer layer of the stems and slice them thinly.
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, mix the Thai oyster sauce, soy sauce, fish sauce, sugar, and water until the sugar dissolves. Set aside.
Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan evenly.
Once the oil is hot, add the minced garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, until fragrant but not browned.
Increase the heat to high and add the broccoli florets and stems. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the broccoli starts to turn bright green and slightly tender.
Pour in the prepared sauce mixture and stir well, ensuring all the broccoli pieces are coated. Continue to cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the broccoli is tender-crisp and the sauce slightly thickens.
Remove from heat and transfer to a serving plate. Garnish with lime wedges if desired.
Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or as a standalone side dish.
