Ingredients
- 300 grams Broccolini
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Soy sauce
- 2 units Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
Directions
Step 1
Wash the broccolini thoroughly under cold water and trim the tough ends, if necessary.
Step 2
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Step 3
Bring a large pot of water to a boil and add 0.5 teaspoon of salt. Blanch the broccolini in the boiling water for 2–3 minutes until it turns bright green. Immediately drain and transfer to a bowl of ice water to stop the cooking process. Drain again and set aside.
Step 4
In a small bowl, combine the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and 3 tablespoons of water. Stir well to create the sauce.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the minced garlic and sauté for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn the garlic.
Step 6
Add the blanched broccolini to the skillet and toss it with the garlic for 1–2 minutes to heat through.
Step 7
Pour the prepared sauce over the broccolini and toss to coat evenly. Cook for another 2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Step 8
Transfer the broccolini to a serving platter and sprinkle with sesame seeds for garnish.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish with steamed rice or your favorite protein.
