Boiled Bok Choy

This is an extremely easy method of cooking bok choy. My mother-in-law taught me this method and it is now my go-to way to cook vegetables when I'm in a hurry.

Instructions
 

  • To a large pot, add salt, ginger, oil, and water. Bring to a boil.
  • Rinse the bok choy and separate into the leaves. When you get to the stem, you can cut it in half.
  • When the water is boiling, add the baby bok choy and cook for 20 seconds (if your leaves are very thick, you can do 30 seconds). Drain the water thoroughly.
  • Add the oyster sauce and toss to coat. Enjoy!
