Bok Choy Stir Fry
This is a simple & delicious Bok Choy recipe that will be sure to wow the whole family.
Ingredients
- 300-350 grams Bok choy
- 2-3 cloves Garlic
- 3-4 slices Ginger
Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 Tbsp Light soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp Water
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp white granulated sugar
- 1 Tbsp Shaoxing wine
- 1 tsp Chicken bouillon
- 1 tsp Sesame oil garnish at the end
- 1.5 Tbsp Vegetable oil
Instructions
- Start by cutting a small sliver off the ends of each piece of the bok choy. Then cut the bok choy in half.
- Next wash and rinse the bok choy under cold water 2-3 times to get rid of the excess dirt hiding in the bok choy.
- Make sure to wash the bok choy well as a lot of dirt tends to get trapped underneath the stems.
- Once done, drain and dry the bok choy under a colander.
- Next, mince 2-3 cloves of garlic and slice 2-3 pieces of ginger.
- Now to make the sauce, combine the oyster sauce, light soy sauce, sugar, water, black pepper, shaoxing wine, and chicken bouillon powder together. Once done set aside.
- With a wok heated up on medium heat, we’re going to add in 1-1.5 Tbsp of cooking oil to the wok. Next add in our minced garlic and ginger slices to the wok.
- Let it cook for about 15-20 seconds and then add in your bok choy.
- Stir fry everything for about 3-4 minutes.
- Once the leafs of the bok choy changes into a dark greenish colour and it shrinks, add in the sauce and continue stir-frying it for another half a minute.
- Finally add in your sesame oil, give it a quick few tosses then remove from the stove and serve.

Notes
I’m using shanghai baby bok choy in this recipe. If you’re using regular bok choy, you can either cut them in half or cut them into quarters. You may also opt to boil or steam the bok choy first before stir-frying them if you want the bok choy to be softer. This is entirely up to personal preference.
