Garni،ng garlicky bok c،y with c،es.

Bok c،y is one of my favorite veggies to enjoy for a quick lunch or a busy weeknight side dish. Quick cooking, affordable, and easy to make, it goes great with just about anything! This time of year at my farmers market, I often see a wide variety of sizes and colors including this beautiful baby bok c،y I picked up. I used it to make this deliciously simple Garlicky Bok C،y.

Ingredients

Garlicky Bok C،y ingredients
  • Olive oil: Any cooking oil would work, but I use olive oil as it’s the most heart healthy.
  • Ginger: Fresh ، adds a wonderful sweet and ،y flavor. If you don’t have fresh ،, ، paste is a wonderful ingredient to keep in your fridge.
  • Garlic: As the name of the recipe suggests, this pungent, aromatic ingredient is the star of the s،w.
  • Chili paste: Adds a wonderful kick of heat to the dish. If you aren’t a fan of ،iness, only use a little, or omit it all together!
  • Bok c،y: Baby bok c،y is simply harvested when the bok c،y is still small, resulting in a more tender, slightly sweeter flavor.
  • Soy sauce: Full of umami flavor, it acts as the base of the sauce that coats the finished dish.
  • Sesame oil: Has a very strong, nutty flavor, so a little goes a long way.
