Preparation
Step 1
Trim ends off Chinese Broccoli. If any stems are super thick, cut them in half (you want all stems approximately the same width).
Step 2
Steam Chinese Broccoli using whatever method you want - I microwave in a steamer on high for 4 minutes. The stem should be just cooked - not super soft and floppy.
Step 3
Stack the Chinese broccoli together and cut into 4"/10cm lengths, then stack neatly on top of each other.
Step 4
Oyster Sauce
Step 5
Combine water and corn flour in small saucepan, mix to dissolve.
Step 6
Then add remaining ingredients, turn stove onto medium and bring to boil. Boil for 30 seconds to allow to thicken, then remove from stove.
Step 7
Drizzle over Chinese broccoli and serve. Best served warm.
