CATHY'S QUICK STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI SLAW SIDE DISH
My husband and I were hosting a small backyard get together, and were getting ready to take everything out to the deck to eat, when I realized we didn't really have much of a vegetable to serve. I opened the fridge and saw a bag of broccoli slaw and just threw this together. It was a hit! Our neighbor begged me for the recipe, so I decided I'd better post it before I forget what I did! Measurements of oil, garlic, and soy sauce are approximate. This is a simple, fresh side dish with a nutty-garlic flavor. Adjust to your personal preferences. I've never cooked with sesame seeds, but I'd be curious to see how they would work in this dish, in place of the pine nuts. Prep time is for toasting pine nuts, but this can easily be done while stirfrying the broccoli slaw as well. (In a separate pan, of course!)

Steps:
- Heat sesame oil in large skillet or wok.
- Add garlic. Sautee garlic slightly, infusing oil with garlic flavor. Monitor heat carefully to avoid burning.
- Add broccoli coleslaw, and stir fry until crisp-tender. (I cheated and put the cover on my skillet for a little while to speed things along with a little steam).
- Add soy sauce and splenda, and continue to cook until splenda is disolved and liquid is absorbed. Taste test, and determine whether or not you'd like to add more splenda, soy sauce, or salt and pepper. Adjust seasonings accordingly.
- Place in serving bowl, and top with toasted pine nuts. Toss slightly, but no so much that pine nuts drop all the way to the bottom of the bowl.
- Note: To toast pine nuts, I placed them in a heavy pan, over medium-low heat, and tossed and shook the pan to keep them moving, until they started to show some browning and until they started to smell toasted and more intense.

STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI IN OYSTER SAUCE
When I was growing up in Brooklyn, many of my friends had working parents who would leave them money to buy Chinese takeout for dinner. I would crave their chicken wings, plantains and chicken with broccoli, but my mother was less than happy with my junky leanings. So she decided to make better Chinese takeout food at home, which is how this simple broccoli dish came about. It's been a hit ever since. I never order chicken with broccoli at my local takeout anymore. (Chicken wings are a different story.) -Vivian Chan, Recipe Tester

BROCCOLI AND CHICKEN STIR-FRIED RICE
This is adapted from Cooking Light, July 2007. I really think it is one of my favorite stir-fry recipes out there, It is also very flexible...I'm sure you could sub in other veggies for some of the broccoli, like water chestnuts or carrots or mushrooms. Let your imagination run wild :). The original recipe calls for 2 T reduced-sodium soy sauce plus 1/4 t table salt stirred in at the end, but I think it is salty enough as written here.

BROCCOLI 'N RED PEPPERS STIR FRIED
The key to a good stir fry is to have the veggies piping hot but still crisp. Cook this to your liking in terms of crispness. If you like a thicker sauce add 2 tsp of cornstarch to the stock. Great with Chicken. If you wish this suitable for vegetarrian diets use veggie stock in place of the chicken stock I have made this again in 2009. I modified the recipe by omitting the sesame seeds, used no oil just a light spray of "no oil." Not caring for a lot of sauce cut out the stock and used 4 tbsp of vermouth with 3 tbsp light soy - It worked.

Steps:
- Trim the large leaves from the broccoli, and cut off any tough ends of lower stems. Rinse broccoli with cool water. Cut stems and florets into bite-size pieces. Cut stem ends from the mushrooms, and cut the mushrooms into 1/4-inch slices.
- If the scallops are larger than 1 inch in diameter, cut each in half. Rinse with cool water, and pat dry with paper towels. Drain the roasted red peppers in a strainer; cut the red peppers into slices.
- In a 2-quart saucepan, heat the rice and water to boiling over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Once mixture is boiling, reduce heat just enough so mixture bubbles gently. Cover with lid; cook about 15 minutes or until rice is fluffy and tender. While the rice is cooking, continue with the recipe.
- In a 3-quart saucepan or 12-inch skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the mushrooms; cook about 5 minutes, stirring frequently, until tender when pierced with a fork.
- Stir in the scallops, broccoli and roasted red peppers. Cook 3 to 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until scallops are white and opaque. Remove the saucepan from the heat.
- Place the cornstarch in a medium bowl. Gradually stir the chicken broth into the cornstarch until the mixture is smooth. Stir the broth mixture and soy sauce into the scallop mixture. Heat to boiling over high heat, stirring constantly. Continue boiling 1 minute, stirring constantly. Serve over rice.

Steps:
- Heat the oil in a skillet over high heat. Throw in the broccoli and stir-fry, tossing constantly, until browned in spots, 3 to 4 minutes. Add the garlic and ginger and cook, tossing, about 1 minute more. Sprinkle over the soy sauce and toss. Sprinkle with the cilantro, stir and serve.
Tips:
- Select fresh, firm broccoli: Look for broccoli crowns with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid crowns with yellowing or wilted florets.
- Cut the broccoli into uniform-sized florets: This will help them cook evenly. Aim for florets that are about 1-2 inches in size.
- Blanch the broccoli before frying: Blanching helps to preserve the broccoli's鮮豔色彩 and crisp-tender texture. To blanch the broccoli, bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the broccoli florets and cook for 2-3 minutes, or until they are bright green and tender. Immediately transfer the broccoli to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process.
- Coat the broccoli in a flavorful batter: The batter helps the broccoli to brown and crisp up in the pan. You can use a simple batter made with flour, eggs, and milk, or you can get creative and add other ingredients like herbs, spices, or cheese.
- Fry the broccoli in hot oil: Use a large skillet or wok with a high rim to prevent the oil from splattering. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C). Carefully add the broccoli florets to the oil and fry until they are golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes.
- Drain the broccoli on paper towels: This will help to remove any excess oil.
- Season the broccoli with salt and pepper: To taste.
Conclusion:
Fried broccoli is a delicious and versatile side dish that can be enjoyed on its own or as part of a larger meal. It is a great way to get your daily dose of vegetables, and it is also a good source of vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. With its crispy texture and flavorful coating, fried broccoli is sure to be a hit with everyone at your table. So next time you are looking for a quick and easy side dish, give fried broccoli a try!
