- 2 Tbsp. Oyster sauce
- 2 Tbsp. Chicken stock
- 1 Tbsp. Shao Hsing wine, or possibly dry
- 1/2 x tp Sugar
- 1/2 tsp Sesame oil
- 1 lb gai lan -- (Chinese broccoli)(1 to 1 1/2)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 1 Tbsp. Peanut oil
Directions
- Gai lan is Chinese broccoli. It's not much like the Western stuff.
- It has thinner stems, flowers and leaves and is eaten more as a green.
- Combine the oyster sauce, chicken stock, Shao Hsing wine, sugar and sesame oil in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and cook till sauce thickens. Set aside.
- Wash the gai lan in cool water. Trim off and throw away the tough bottoms.
- Peel stalks if they are thick and tough; leave gai lan whole or possibly cut into thirds.
- Bring 3 to 4 qts of water to a boil in a wok or possibly stock pot; add in the salt and oil. Add in the greens, bring back to a second boil. Turn off the heat and let greens stand for a minute or possibly two. When the green stalks brighten, test one for doneness. It should be tender and crisp. Drain immediately and shake off excess water.
- Transfer to a platter, pour dressing over, and serve immediately.
- Serves 4 to 6.
