I've always liked broccoli, providing you are talking about the budding tops. The stems I could do without. For a while there I was throwing the stems away, but that felt so extravagant that I kept wondering if there wasn't something I could do with them. There is... and it's even delicious. Now I look forward to the stems as much as the rest of the broccoli.

Steps:
- Peel the broccoli stems, but don't cut off the ends.
- Grate the stems down to the end stubs, and discard the stubs and any stringy bits that didn't grate well.
- Peel and grate the carrot.
- Discard the thick cabbage stems, and finely shred the rest of the leaves.
- Finely chop the green onions.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet, and add all the prepared vegetables.
- Sprinkle the water over the top.
- Cook the vegetables over medium-high heat for 3 or 4 minutes, stirring frequently, until the water is evaporated.
- Sprinkle the soy and Worcestershire sauces over the vegetables, and continue to cook and stir for 3 or 4 more minutes until the vegetables are crisp-tender.

[email protected]I'm always looking for ways to use up leftover vegetables, and this recipe is a great way to do that. The stems were just as good as the florets and leaves.

[email protected]Great recipe! I used a pre-made stir-fry sauce and it turned out great. The stems were a bit tough, but still edible.

[email protected]This recipe was a great way to use up leftover broccoli, carrot, and cabbage stems. I had never used stems in a stir-fry before, but they were just as tender and flavorful as the florets and leaves.
