Stir-Fried Baby Bok Choy with Shiitake Mushrooms

Ingredients

  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons canola oil

  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced

  • 6 ounces shiitake mushrooms, stems discarded, caps cut into 1-inch pieces

  • 1 ½ pounds baby bok choy, leaves separated from the stems

  • ¼ cup plus 2 tablespoons Chinese cooking wine

  • ¾ cup Vietnamese stir-fry sauce

Instructions

  1. In a large skillet or a wok, heat the oil until small puffs of smoke begin to appear. Add the garlic and stir-fry over high heat for 10 seconds. 

  2. Add the shiitake and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the Bok choy and stir-fry until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. 

  3. Add the wine and cook until slightly reduced, about 1 minute.  

  4. Add the Vietnamese stir-fry sauce and cook until the bok choy is tender but still bright green and the sauce is slightly reduced, about 4 minutes longer. Serve hot.
