SIMPLE BROCCOLI STIR-FRY
Stir-frying has stood the test of time. It's a wonderful way to cook small pieces of vegetables and meat quickly, without a lot of fat. Prepping your ingredients ahead of time and having them near your stovetop is the key to success. This recipe can be made in a large nonstick skillet, but consider purchasing a wok: Carbon steel and cast-iron take on high heat well, and the concave shape makes stir-frying foods easy and fast.

Steps:
- Trim the florets off the broccoli, and cut into 1- to 1 1/2-inch pieces. Peel the broccoli stalks with a vegetable peeler to remove the tough outer skin, and slice 1/4 inch thick on the diagonal. Set aside.
- Whisk together 1/2 cup water, soy sauce, cornstarch and sugar in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat a large wok over high heat. Add 2 tablespoons of the vegetable oil, and swirl to coat the wok. Once the oil begins to smoke, add the broccoli florets and stems. Cook, stirring constantly, until browned around the edges, about 2 minutes. Add 2 tablespoons of water to steam the broccoli, and cook, stirring constantly, until tender, about 2 minutes more. Push the broccoli to the edges of the pan, forming an empty well in the center. Add the remaining 1 teaspoon vegetable oil, then the scallions, garlic, ginger and pepper flakes, and stir until aromatic, 30 to 45 seconds. Add the soy mixture, and stir until the sauce has thickened and the broccoli is coated, about 30 seconds. Remove from the heat, add the sesame oil and stir to coat. Serve with rice.

QUICK ASIAN BROCCOLI STIR-FRY
Bright green & fragrant. I found this recipe in a 30-year old Chinese cookbook. I've adapted it for frozen broccoli to make a faster side dish. The color and aroma is great. For fresh brocolli....saute the florets in the ginger oil, add a few tbsp water, cover and steam for 5 mins.

Steps:
- Heat oil in wok over high heat until hot but not smoking, then stir-fry garlic until pale golden, 10 to 15 seconds. Add broccoli and stock and stir-fry 2 minutes. Add bean sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar and stir-fry until broccoli is crisp-tender, 4 to 5 minutes.
Tips:
- Choose the Right Broccoli: Select broccoli with tightly closed florets and a deep green color. Avoid broccoli with yellowing or wilted florets.
- Cut Broccoli Properly: Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets, ensuring uniform size for even cooking.
- Tender-Crisp Broccoli: For a tender-crisp texture, blanch the broccoli florets in boiling water for 1-2 minutes before stir-frying.
- High Heat: Use high heat to stir-fry the broccoli, allowing it to sear and develop a slightly charred flavor.
- Stir Constantly: Stir the broccoli continuously to prevent burning and ensure even cooking.
- Use Fresh Aromatics: Enhance the flavor of the dish by using freshly minced garlic, ginger, and scallions.
- Quality Soy Sauce: Opt for a high-quality soy sauce with a rich flavor to elevate the taste of the dish.
- Serve Immediately: Serve the stir-fried broccoli immediately after cooking to maintain its vibrant color and crisp texture.
