Baby Bok Choy Authentic Chinese Recipes

Steps:

• In a bowl, mix together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, and brown sugar until the sugar has dissolved. Mix the potato starch and water in a small bowl, and stir it into the oyster sauce mixture until smooth.
• Fill a pot with water, bring to a boil, and stir in salt and vegetable oil. Place the bok choy into the boiling water, and cook until tender, shiny, and bright green, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain the bok choy, and arrange attractively on a serving platter.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or wok until the oil shimmers, then toss the green onion and garlic in the hot oil until fragrant, about 20 seconds; stir in the mushrooms. Cook and stir until the mushrooms begin to shrink slightly. Sprinkle the mushrooms lightly with salt. Continue to cook the mushrooms, stirring often, until they are tender, about 5 minutes. Pour in the oyster sauce mixture, then stir until the sauce is thickened and coats the mushrooms, 30 seconds to 1 minute. Pour the thickened mushroom sauce over the bok choy; serve immediately.

Steps:

• Combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar and rice vinegar in a bowl and set aside.
• Heat oil in a skillet or wok set over high heat. When it shimmers, add garlic, then bok choy, and stir-fry for 2 minutes. Add 2 to 3 tablespoons water to the skillet or wok, then cover it and allow to cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, until bok choy has softened nicely at its base.
• Remove bok choy from the skillet or wok and place it on a warmed platter. Drizzle the reserved sauce over the greens and serve.

Steps:

• Clean baby bok choy in cold water several times to get out the sand/dirt. You can slice the vegetable in half length-wise if you like.
• heat oil over medium heat in skillet. (very briefly if using sesame oil since this burns quickly).
• If you are using fresh garlic instead of garlic salt, add to oil now.
• Add baby bok choy to skillet, stirring constantly, about 1 min until leaves are coated with oil and beginning to wilt.
• Add chicken broth and cover pan.
• Simmer for 2-3 minutes. Test for doneness with a fork - if it can pierce the white thick part of the stalk without much resistance it is ready.
• Remove from heat, add garlic salt.
• When transferring to serving dish, you can move some of the broth but don't take the bottom bits since this may have residual sand.

Steps:

• Melt butter in heavy large skillet over moderate heat.
• Add minced garlic and saute about 2-3 minutes until barely golden/brown.
• Add bok choy and chicken broth and simmer until bok choy is tender, turning occasionally, about 8 minutes.
• Season with salt and pepper.
• Use a slotted spoon to serve.
