Stir-Fried Bok Choy with Garlic
A classic and simple Chinese vegetable dish featuring crisp-tender bok choy quickly stir-fried with fragrant garlic. This method ensures the greens retain their vibrant color and a satisfying bite.
🧂 Ingredienti
- 500 g Baby bok choy
- 6 cloves Garlic
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil(A neutral oil like canola, grapeseed, or peanut oil is recommended.)
- 1/2 tsp Salt(Or to taste. Fine sea salt or kosher salt works well.)
- 2 tbsp Chicken stock(Low-sodium is preferred to control saltiness. Vegetable stock can be substituted for a vegetarian option.)
👨🍳 Istruzioni
- 1
Prepare the ingredients: Wash the bok choy thoroughly and trim the root ends. Cut each head in half lengthwise, or into quarters if they are very large. Ensure the leaves and stems are intact. Peel and thinly slice or mince the garlic cloves.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 2
Heat the wok or skillet over high heat until it just begins to smoke. This indicates it's hot enough for stir-frying. Add the vegetable oil, swirling to coat the bottom. Immediately add the sliced or minced garlic.
⏱️ 30 seconds - 3
Add the prepared bok choy to the hot wok, stem-side down first if pieces are large. Stir-fry vigorously, tossing the bok choy constantly using a spatula or wok shovel. Cook for about 2 minutes, allowing the stems to soften slightly.
⏱️ 2 minutes - 4
Pour in the chicken stock and sprinkle with salt. Continue to toss and stir-fry for another 1-3 minutes, or until the bok choy is crisp-tender. The leaves should be wilted but still hold their shape, and the stems should be tender with a slight bite.
⏱️ 1-3 minutes - 5
Remove from heat immediately and transfer to a serving platter. Serve hot.
