TIPS FOR STIR-FRIED BROCCOLI WITH GARLIC AND SOY SAUCE

  • You can add a pinch of red pepper flakes for extra flavour while sautéing the garlic.
  • Ensure you do not overcook the broccoli to retain its bright green colour and crisp texture.
  • Use a high-quality soy sauce for the best flavour.

VARIATIONS

  • Add sliced mushrooms or bell peppers for a more varied vegetable stir-fry.
  • Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds or chopped nuts on top for added crunch.
  • Substitute the broccoli with green beans, bok choy, or asparagus.

PREPPING AND STORAGE

  • Fridge: Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • Reheating: Reheat in a pan over medium heat until warmed through, or microwave for 1-2 minutes.
  • Freezer: Not recommended for freezing, as the texture of the broccoli may change upon thawing.
