print Recipe: Baby Bok Choy with Garlic and Shrimp

Ingredients:

4 oz. bok choy mui/baby bok choi (cleaned and rinsed)
1/8 teaspoon salt or to taste
1 tablespoon oil
1/4 cup peeled baby shrimps
3 cloves garlic (finely chopped)

Method:

Heat up a wok with the cooking oil and saute the chopped garlic until light brown or aromatic. Add the baby shrimps and stir-fry until the shrimps are half-cooked. Add in a pinch of salt to the shrimp, and then follow by the baby bok choy. Quickly stir-fry the vegetables, dish out and serve hot.

Cook’s Notes:

1. Do not overcook your vegetables. They should retain the vitality and crunchiness.
2. Please check out my Chinese greens with oyster sauce recipe.

    (Chinese recipes, prepare authentic Chinese food now!)

Plus, unlike common beliefs, they are not too expensive, if you know where to buy them. For me, the frozen 5 lb….

    Sans shrimp, we like having this every now and then, esp. with fried food :) The greens can be a bit bitter for a sweet tooth like me, but bitterness has this “healthy” feeling, doesn’t it?

    This dish is really simple and healthy I reckon. Sometimes, I just think that Chinese/Asian food is so quick and easy to prepare and that I am lucky to be able to enjoy it in minutes!

    Thank you for the perfect recipe for a beginner to Asian cooking! Love baby bok choi, picked some up at the local Asian market, and found this tasty treat. Very simple, quite yummy, and it gives me the satisfaction that I did this myself! ( I think that knowledge makes it taste even better.) Can’t wait to try another one of these recipes soon. Thanks again!
