Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 head broccoli
  • 1.5 lbs. bok choy
  • 1 tbsp. ginger minced
  • 1 tsp. garlic minced
  • 1 tbsp. miso paste
  • 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tsp. maple syrup or brown sugar
  • ½ tsp. pepper
  • 1 thai red chilli
  • 1 tbsp. sesame oil

Instructions

  • Wash and cut the broccoli into florets. Slice broccoli stalk or stem into thin slices, if using. I also microwave the broccoli florets on high for about 2-3 minutes till it is al dente and bright green. This helps in stir frying the broccoli quickly. If not, you will have to cook the broccoli florets for longer when stir frying.
  • Wash the bok choy well especially focussing on any dirt it captures in its stem and leaves. Chop roughly and keep aside. Discard any tough stems and bottom.
  • Finely mince or chop ginger and garlic. Make the sauce by combining 2 tsp. Miso with 1 tbsp. apple cider vinegar, ½ tsp. Maple syrup or brown sugar and red chilli (if using). Vegetarians can use honey as well. Add some water to make the sauce runny.
  • Now you are ready to make the stir fry. Heat a pan or skillet and add 1 tbsp. sesame oil. Let it heat. Add in the minced ginger and garlic and fry for 30 seconds. Tip in the broccoli florets and stalk and cook for about 3-4 minutes.
  • Now add in the bok choy which looks like a lot but will quickly wilt down. Also add in the sauce along with pepper.
  • Stir fry on high so that the broccoli and bok choy cook together and release water. I cook it for about 4-5 minutes. I let the stir fry have a little sauce because I pair this stir fry with rice. The little sauce is very flavourful.
  • That’s it, your bok choy broccoli stir fry is ready to serve. Enjoy it hot off the plate.

Notes

1. This recipe may not work well with frozen veggies as they would get very soggy.
2. You can store and reheat the stir fry, but it does taste the best fresh. Store in air tight container for 2-3 days in the fridge. Reheat the leftovers before serving.
3. If you don’t have miso, you can use soy sauce or tamari in its place.You can also add ½ tsp. Vegan oyster sauce to enhance the umami flavour in the recipe.
