Bok Choy

I was never very familiar with bok choy until I found it on sale one day at the grocery store and thought I'd give it a try. It is generally used with asian cuisines, which I love to eat and cook, so I put it in a beef stir- fry. I absolutely fell in love with it and now I buy it as often as possible! I'm going to make it again tonight and thought i'd share the recipe. Another favorite from the food Network:

Beef with Soy Sauce, Ginger and Bok Choy

Ingredients

  • 2 (8 ounce/ 225 gram) sirloin steaks
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 pak choy or bok choy
  • 8 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled
  • 1 chilli, deseeded and finely chopped
  • 1/2 a garlic clove, finely grated
  • 1 lime, juiced
  • Olive oil

Directions

On a very hot griddle pan, cook your seasoned piece of sirloin steak until medium or to your liking. Place in a plate and allow to rest for 2 minutes.
Now cook your greens in salted boiling water until tender.
While hot, douse with a good couple of tablespoons of soy sauce, and sprinkle with the garlic, ginger, chilli, lime juice and olive oil.
When the greens are cooked, simply divide onto two plates, thinly slice up the sirloin steaks, place on top of the greens and drizzle with any of the infused sauce left on the resting plate.

I will be adding mushrooms, spring onions, and thai chilies to the mix and serving with a side of white rice. Yum yum!
