BABY BOK CHOY WITH OYSTER SAUCE



Baby Bok Choy With Oyster Sauce image

This is among the easiest, most flavorful preparations of greens imaginable, and it pairs beautifully with almost any vaguely Asian roasted meat or fish. It is also exceptional on its own, with rice. You could swap out the bok choy for broccoli, if that's all you have, or chard, or beet greens.

SPICY BOK CHOY IN GARLIC SAUCE



Spicy Bok Choy in Garlic Sauce image

Bok Choy is one of my favorite vegetables. It has its own spiciness that is complimented by the sweetness of the sauce in this recipe. I like to serve this with grilled shrimp and steamed rice. For variety, I sometimes add a small amount of lemon zest just before serving.

Categories     Side Dish     Vegetables

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound bok choy
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
¼ cup water
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1 tablespoon brown sugar
⅛ teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes

Steps:

  • Trim off the ends of the bok choy and chop, keeping the white parts separate from the green as they will need to cook longer. Rinse and spin or pat dry. Set aside.
  • In a small bowl or cup, stir together the vegetable oil and sesame oil. In a separate larger bowl, stir together the water, ginger, garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and red pepper flakes. Set this aside.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the bok choy stems first; stir fry for a few minutes or until the pieces start to turn a pale green. When stems are almost cooked, add the leaves; cook and stir until leaves are wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the bok choy to a serving dish. Pour the sauce into the skillet or wok, and set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour over the bok choy and toss lightly to coat.

Time 35m

Yield 8

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
2 teaspoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon potato starch
1 tablespoon water
2 pinches salt
¼ teaspoon vegetable oil
4 heads baby bok choy
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and brown sugar until the sugar has dissolved. Mix the potato starch and water in a small bowl, and stir it into the oyster sauce mixture until smooth.
  • Fill a pot with water, bring to a boil, and stir in salt and vegetable oil. Place the bok choy into the boiling water, and cook until tender, shiny, and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the bok choy, and arrange attractively on a serving platter.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok until the oil shimmers, then toss the green onion and garlic in the hot oil until fragrant, about 20 seconds; stir in the mushrooms. Cook and stir until the mushrooms begin to shrink slightly. Sprinkle the mushrooms lightly with salt. Continue to cook the mushrooms, stirring often, until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in the oyster sauce mixture, then stir until the sauce is thickened and coats the mushrooms, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour the thickened mushroom sauce over the bok choy; serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Select high-quality bok choy: Choose bok choy that is deep green in color and has crisp, firm stalks. Avoid any heads that are wilted or have yellow leaves.
  • Wash the bok choy thoroughly: Rinse the bok choy under cold water to remove any dirt or debris. Separate the leaves from the stalks and wash them individually.
  • Cut the bok choy properly: Cut the bok choy stalks into 1-inch pieces and the leaves into 2-inch pieces. This will help them cook evenly.
  • Use a high-quality sauce: The sauce is the key to this dish, so make sure to use a good quality one. You can use store-bought or make your own using soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and ginger.
  • Cook the bok choy over high heat: This will help to preserve its texture and color.
  • Serve the bok choy immediately: Bok choy is best served immediately after cooking. If you need to store it, let it cool completely before refrigerating it for up to 3 days.
