Instructions

  1. Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add a pinch of salt and a spoonful of vegetable oil to the water, so the broccoli will retain its nice color through cooking. Add broccoli. Cook until soft. Strain and place on a plate. (*see footnote 1)
  2. While boiling the water, combine 1/4 cup water, the oyster sauce, the soy sauce and the sugar into a small skillet. Cook over medium heat until almost boiling. Turn to low heat. Cook until the sauce reaches desired thickness.
  3. Drizzle the sauce onto the broccoli right before serving.

Notes

  • As an alternative, you can steam the broccoli too. Steamed veggies retain even more nutritions.
