Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

10 ounces chinese broccoli (gai lan)
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 slice fresh ginger

Steps:

  • Wash the Chinese broccoli. Cut off the ends if not already trimmed and cut into bite-sized pieces (about 2 inches long).
  • In a large saucepan, add enough water to cover the broccoli. Add the salt, baking soda and ginger. Bring to a boil.
  • While waiting for the water to boil, prepare the sauce. Combine the chicken broth or water, oyster sauce, rice wine or dry sherry and sugar. Bring to a boil in a small saucepan. Turn the heat down and keep warm while blanching the broccoli.
  • Add the Chinese broccoli to the boiling water. Cook until the stalks are tender but crisp (3 - 4 minutes). Rinse in cold running water. Drain.
  • Pour the sauce over the broccoli. Serve immediately.
