BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC SAUCE CHINESE RECIPES

Steps:

• Trim Chinese broccoli, remove the hard skins and cut into sections with angle. Separate the leaves too.
• Bring a large pot of water to a boiling and then add salt and vegetable cooking oil. Add the stem firstly (cook for 20 seconds) and then add the leaves to cook for 10 seconds. Transfer out and drain.
• Add oil in already heated wok and fry the garlic until slightly seared. Place Chinese broccoli back, add cooking wine and sesame oil. Mix well quickly and serve immediately.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F Lightly spray a large, rimmed baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray (or use a stoneware pan without spray.) Set aside.
• In a large mixing bowl, stir together the canola oil, chile-garlic sauce, sesame oil, raw sugar and minced garlic until even.
• Slice the broccoli crowns into long spears, keeping as much of the stem area intact as possible. Do not cut the spears too small or they’ll burn instead of cooking to the desired crisp tender stage. Add all of the broccoli spears to the mixing bowl with the oil mixture and toss until everything is evenly coated. Transfer to the prepared pan, arranging the spears so they are in a single layer and sprinkle with salt to taste.
• Bake for 20-25 minutes, or until there are darkened, black, wilted edges on the cut areas and florets of the broccoli. Remove from the oven and serve immediately with hot, cooked rice or as an accompaniment to a stir fried meats or tofu.
