Gai Lan (Chinese Broccoli ) With Oyster Sauce


1. Wash the gai lan and trim the ends of stalk (about 1/2 inch) and discard the ends.

2. Mix the chicken stock, sake, and sugar in a small bowl and set aside.

3. In a large wok or pan heat 1 1/2 T vegetable oil over medium heat. Add the garlic cloves and cook until lightly golden about 1 to 2 minutes. Be careful you do not burn the garlic.

4. Turn the heat to high and add the ginger and cook for 15 to 20 seconds and add gai lan stalks.

5. With a large spoon or spatula scoop up the oil and bathe the gai lan stalks for about 1 minute.

6. Pour the chicken stock mixture and immediately cover the wok or the pan with a tight fitting lid.

7. Turn down the heat to medium and let gai lan steam for about 3-4 minutes. You should be able to easily pierce with the stalks with a fork.
