Sautéed Sesame Baby Bok Choy

Amanda Li • August 3, 2016

A quick vegetable side dish that you can throw together and serve alongside fish, chicken or tofu.

INGREDIENTS

2 tsp sesame oil
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tsp freshly grated ginger
1 lb baby bok choy, cleaned and ends trimmed
1-2 tbsp water
To taste sea salt
1 tbsp sesame seeds (optional garnish)


PROCEDURE

  1. Preheat a large pan, with tight fitting lid over medium-high heat. Add oil, garlic and ginger and cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not brown, about 30 seconds.
  2. Add the bok choy, using tongs, fold it into the garlic-ginger mixture until coated, about 1 minute. Add the water and season with salt, cover, and cook until steam accumulates, about 2 minutes. Uncover and cook, stirring occasionally, until the greens are just wilted, the stalks are just fork tender but still crisp, and most of the water has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Turn off the heat, sprinkle with sesame seeds and serve immediately.
