Ingredients
- Black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Salt
- 1/2 teaspoon
- Vegetable oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon
- Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons
- Garlic
- 5 cloves, minced
- Bok choy
- 1 large head, washed and chopped
Instructions
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
- Add minced garlic to the heated oil and sauté for 1-2 minutes until it becomes fragrant and slightly golden.
- Introduce the chopped bok choy to the skillet and stir fry for 3-4 minutes until it starts to wilt but retains a bit of crunch.
- Evenly drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil over the bok choy, ensuring each leaf gets a touch of the savory sauces.
- Season the stir fry with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Continue to stir fry for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the bok choy to soak up the flavors from the sauces and seasonings.
- Remove the skillet from heat and let it rest for a minute before serving. Enjoy this hearty stir fry hot as a side dish or make it a complete meal with some steamed jasmine rice.
Tips
- For a hint of heat, add a sliced red chili or a sprinkle of crushed red pepper flakes.
- You can also incorporate other vegetables like mushrooms or bell peppers to add more color and variety.
- Don't overcook the bok choy. It should be tender but still slightly crisp to preserve its nutritional value.
