Garlic Bok Choy Stir fry with chili peppers
Description
The recipe starts with carefully preparing bok choy by trimming ends and discarding older leaves for better texture. For the hot garlic version, dried chili peppers are briefly fried in oil to infuse spiciness, followed by garlic and then bok choy, finished with soy sauce and salt. For the garlic and oyster version, garlic is fried first and then bok choy is stir-fried before adding oyster sauce for a savory finish.
Both versions focus on high heat for a quick stir-fry that preserves the bok choy's crunch and freshness while coating it with aromatic garlic and either heat or umami sauce. The dish pairs well as a side, balancing other stronger dishes with its crisp texture and bright flavors.
