LILY'S BABY BOK CHOY WITH DIPPING SAUCE

Steps:

• Bring a large pot of water to a boil over high heat. Add salt and 1 teaspoon oil to water and return to a boil. Prepare an ice-water bath; set aside. Add bok choy to boiling water and cook 1 1/2 minutes. Immediately drain and transfer to ice-water bath to cool. Drain and set aside.
• Heat a wok or large skillet over very high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil to wok. Add bok choy and season with salt. Cook, stirring quickly, until bok choy is wilted, about 1 minute. Immediately transfer bok choy to a serving platter.
• Drain any remaining liquid from wok and return to high heat. Add remaining tablespoon oil. Add ginger and cook, stirring quickly, until lightly browned and fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add mushrooms, season with salt, and continue cooking, stirring constantly, about 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup water to wok and continue cooking mushrooms until soft, about 1 minute more.
• Pour mushrooms and cooking liquid over bok choy. Serve immediately with dipping sauce.

BABY BOK CHOY WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim 6 heads baby bok choy and separate the leaves. Cook in salted boiling water until tender, about 1 minute; drain. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add 4 chopped garlic cloves and 1 thinly sliced Fresno chile; cook 30 seconds. Add 1/4 cup oyster sauce, 2 teaspoons fish sauce, 2 teaspoons balsamic vinegar and the bok choy; toss to coat.

BABY BOK CHOY WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Stir the oyster sauce, soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil and sugar in a bowl until well combined; set aside. Wash the bok choy well to remove any grit and drain in a colander, leaving some water clinging to the leaves. Halve any large heads lengthwise.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add half each of the garlic and ginger and cook, stirring, until just softened, about 30 seconds. Add half of the bok choy and stir to coat. Cook until the bok choy is crisp-tender at the stem, 4 to 5 minutes; add water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to keep a bit of moisture in the skillet and prevent the garlic from burning. Remove to a platter.
• Add the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the skillet and repeat with the remaining garlic, ginger and bok choy. When tender, return the first batch of bok choy to the skillet and heat through. Transfer all the bok choy to the platter and drizzle with the sauce.

SPICY BOK CHOY IN GARLIC SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim off the ends of the bok choy and chop, keeping the white parts separate from the green as they will need to cook longer. Rinse and spin or pat dry. Set aside.
• In a small bowl or cup, stir together the vegetable oil and sesame oil. In a separate larger bowl, stir together the water, ginger, garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce, brown sugar and red pepper flakes. Set this aside.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the bok choy stems first; stir fry for a few minutes or until the pieces start to turn a pale green. When stems are almost cooked, add the leaves; cook and stir until leaves are wilted, 1 to 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and transfer the bok choy to a serving dish. Pour the sauce into the skillet or wok, and set over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sauce has thickened slightly, about 3 minutes. Pour over the bok choy and toss lightly to coat.

Lay the bok choy halves, cut sides down, into the sauce, and reduce heat to a simmer. Cook until tender, about 10 minutes. Serve with sauce spooned over bok choy.
