    Source of Recipe


    Marla

    List of Ingredients




    10 stalks Chinese broccoli (gai lan), about 12 ounces
    1 tablespoon vegetable oil
    3 slices ginger
    ¼ teaspoon sugar
    ½ teaspoon salt
    1 tablespoon Shao Hsing rice cooking wine

    Recipe



    Wash the broccoli in several changes of cold water and drain thoroughly in
    a
    colander until dry to the touch. Trim ¼ inch from the bottom of each stalk,
    Stalks that are more than ½ inch in diameter should be peeled, then halved
    lengthwise. Cut the broccoli stalks and leaves into 2 ½-inch-long pieces,
    keeping the stalk ends separate from the leaves and buds.

    Heat a 14-inch flat-bottomed wok or skillet over high heat until hot but
    not
    smoking. Add the oil and ginger, and stir-fry 30 seconds. Add only the
    broccoli stalks and stir-fry 1 to 1 ½ minutes until the stalks are bright
    green. Add the leaves, and continue cooking for 1 minute until the leaves
    are
    just limp.

    Sprinkle on the sugar, salt, and rice wine. Stir-fry 2 to 3 minutes, or
    until
    the vegetables are just tender but still bright green. Serve immediately.

    Serves 4 as part of a multicourse meal
