Ingredients

  • 1 pound Chinese greens (called yu choy), cut into 3-inch lengths
  • 4 -6 cloves garlic, whole
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1/4 cup vegetable or chicken broth

Instructions

  • Heat the oil in your wok until hot. Turn the heat to medium. Add the garlic cloves to the oil and fry until the cloves are golden brown (but not burnt!). This will flavor the oil.
  • Add the Yu Choy, stir so that each stalk gets a light coating of the garlic-flavored oil. Add the chicken broth and immediately cover. Let the vegetable steam for 3 1/2 minutes until tender. The Yu Choy should still be bright green, the stalks should be soft and still have a nice bite to it.
