Ingredients
- 1 pound Chinese broccoli (end trimmed and thoroughly washed)
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2-3 tablespoons oyster sauce (or to taste)
Instructions
- Boil 2 quarts/liters of water in your wok or a large pot, and add the salt and oil directly to the water.
- When the water reaches a good raging boil, carefully add the whole stalks of Chinese broccoli. (Depending on how much you have, you may want to work in two batches.)
- Use tongs or a pair of chopsticks to submerge the veggies completely and cook for 1-2 minutes, until tender but still a bit crunchy. (If you like the veggies soft, leave them in a bit longer.)
- Use a pair of tongs or chopsticks to take the Chinese broccoli out of the water. Carefully shake off excess liquid and arrange on a plate. Once they are all plated, you can drain any excess water that may have pooled on the plate.
- Drizzle a couple tablespoons oyster sauce evenly over the veggies and serve!
