Ingredients

Servings
  • 1 broccoli cut into florets, medium head
  • 2 tablespoons sesame oil
  • 4 garlic minced, cloves
  • ½ inch ginger minced
  • 2 red chili pepper diced, fresh
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • ½ teaspoon palm sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 3 tablespoons water

Instructions

  1. Whisk together water, soy sauce, cornstarch and palm sugar in a small bowl until smooth and lump-free. Then set aside.
  2. Heat a pan or skillet over high heat. Add oil and heat until the oil begins to smoke.
  3. Add the broccoli florets and cook, stirring continuously for about 3-4 minutes until they get some scorch marks (but not too browned).
  4. Add salt and a splash of water to steam the broccoli, and cook stirring occasionally until tender, for about 4-5 minutes.
  5. Add garlic, ginger, and fresh red chili and cook, stirring constantly for about 2-3 minutes until fragrant.
  6. Add the slurry and stir for about 30 seconds until the sauce thickens and the broccoli florets are coated.
  7. Remove from heat. Sprinkle some green scallions and toasted sesame seeds on top, if desired and serve while hot.

Notes

  • Keep all your ingredients ready before you start cooking because the cooking goes very quickly.
  • When choosing fresh broccoli, always look for a tightly closed, bright green with no browning edges.
  • Cut the broccoli into roughly same sized florets. So that they will cook evenly. If using frozen broccoli, do not thaw. Stir fry them straight from frozen.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan.
