Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
1 1/2 pounds bok choy -- washed and trimmed
2 Tablespoons peanut oil
1 cup good stock
salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon sesame oil -- optional
If the bok choy stems are wide, cut them in half lengthwise; then cut them
into 1 to 2-inch lengths (if they are narrow, just cut them into pieces).
Heat the peanut oil in a wok or broad skillet over medium-high heat for 3
or 4 minutes; toss in the cabbage and cook, stirring, until it begins to
brown, about 5 minutes. Add the stock, salt, and pepper, and cover; lower
the heat and simmer for 5 to 10 minutes more, until the bok choy is soft
and creamy. Remove the cover, boil off the excess liquid, check the
seasoning, and serve. Drizzle with sesame oil if you like.
Makes 4 servings
Time: About 30 minutes
Other Greens to Use: The results will not be the same, but the technique
can be used with any cabbage or dark green; older greens with thicker
stems must be parboiled first.
AuthorNote: Bok choy take on an entirely different character when it is
cooked for a long time: It becomes creamy and is unlike anything else.
There's a soothing, comforting food quality about it, and you don't have
to Asian to appreciate it.
