Sauteed Broccoli and Bok Choy

@MSLiving (Martha Stewart)(twitter) can to the call of help when I was looking for something delicious for my first adventure with cooking bok choy.


Here is pic of what I cooked, my 4 1/2 year old loved it it perfumes the kitched with sweet oriental yumminess ;)

Sometimes if you make a big deal out of a new veggie and allow the kids to help prepare you will be suprised at how readily they will eat it.

Ingredients

1 pound bok choy
1 pound broccoli
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, such as safflower
1 garlic clove, chopped
1 tablespoon finely grated fresh ginger
1 to 2 tablespoons soy sauce

Directions

1. Cut white stalks from bok choy; slice into 1-inch pieces. Coarsely chop green leaves.
2. Peel stalks from broccoli; slice 1/4 inch thick. Cut florets into bite-size pieces.
3. In a large skillet, boil 1/2 cup water. Add bok choy stalks and broccoli; cover. Simmer over medium-low until broccoli is bright green, 5 to 7 minutes. Uncover; cook on high until water evaporates, 2 to 4 minutes.
4. Add bok choy leaves, oil, and garlic. Cook, tossing often, until garlic is fragrant, 2 minutes.
5. Press ginger in a sieve over skillet to release juices. Stir in soy sauce. I grate my whole bit into the pan we love ginger

Variations

Recipe suggest canola oil rather than safflower oil.



Thanks @MSLiving hopefully Martha herself...LOL
