Easy Baby Bok Choy

Baby bok choy is super healthy (calcium! beta carotene! iron!), has a mild flavor, and is quicker & easier to prepare than regular, "grown-up" bok choy. Good with noodles, tofu, anything!
Ingredients
- 1 pound baby bok choy shopping list
- 2 T vegetable oil shopping list
- 3 cloves garlic, minced shopping list
- 1 t fresh ginger, minced shopping list
- 3 T soy sauce (or wheat-free tamari) shopping list
- 1 t fish sauce shopping list
- sriracha or red pepper flakes, to taste shopping list
How to make it
- Trim the bottom of the baby bok choy stalks and separate the leaves.
- Wash thoroughly (this is important! Baby bok choy is often sandy/dirty) and drain.
- Heat a large frying pan or wok over medium-high heat. When pan is hot, add the oil.
- When oil is hot (but not smoking), add the ginger and garlic. Stir fry ~2 minutes.
- Add the baby bok choy, soy sauce (or tamari), and fish sauce to the pan. Stir fry ~5 minutes until bok choy greens are wilty but stalks are still a little crunchy.
- Add sriracha (or other hot sauce) or red pepper flakes.
- Eat!
- **Notes** This will look like a lot of baby bok choy, but it wilts and reduces in size as you cook it! ** I like the dark green and wrinkley-leafed bok choy with white stems (called white bok choy) but I'm sure the lighter green, green-stemmed bok choy (Shanghai bok choy) would work here just as well ** Add more garlic if you like it garlickier, more ginger if you want it gingerier, more soy sauce if you want it saltier or more soy-sauce-flavored, or a little more fish sauce if you want more complexity and a richer flavor.

I love this flavoring with Kale, the only difference is I use Olive Oil. Your right so so good with noodles. I'm going to rate it a 5 on good faith it tastes just as good as when you make it with Bok Choy.

Nice, I combined the baby bok choy with some broccoli. The two went together well.
