Yield Serves 4 as part of a multicourse meal

Number Of Ingredients 9

6 medium stalks Chinese broccoli (about 12 ounces)
1/4 cup chicken broth
1 1/2 teaspoons Shao Hsing rice wine or dry sherry
1 teaspoon ginger juice
1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon sugar
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 slices ginger

Steps:

  • 1. Cut the broccoli stalks in half lengthwise if more than 1/2 inch in diameter. Cut the stalks and leaves into 2-inch-long pieces, keeping the stalk ends separate from the leaves. In a small bowl combine the broth, rice wine, ginger juice, cornstarch, salt, and sugar.
  • 2. Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok over high heat until a bead of water vaporizes within 1 to 2 seconds of contact. Swirl in the oil, add the ginger, and stir-fry 10 seconds or until the ginger is fragrant. Add only the broccoli stalks and stir-fry 1 to 1 1/2 minutes until the stalks are bright green. Add the leaves and stir-fry 1 minute until the leaves are just limp. Stir the broth mixture and swirl it into the wok. Stir-fry 1 minute or until the sauce has thickened slightly and lightly coats the vegetables.

This is a fantastic vegetarian dish. The Chinese broccoli is a great source of protein and the ginger sauce adds a lot of flavor. I often make this dish for my meat-eating friends and they always love it.

This recipe is well-written and easy to follow. The ingredient list is simple and the instructions are clear. However, I found the dish to be a bit bland. I think it could have used more seasoning or a more flavorful sauce.

Excellent recipe for a healthy and tasty meal. The Chinese broccoli is packed with nutrients and the ginger sauce adds a nice zing. I made a few substitutions to make it even healthier, like using low-sodium soy sauce and olive oil instead of butter.
