Stir-Fried Broccoli with Mushrooms 

Ingredients

• 250 g broccoli florets

• 200 g mushrooms (shiitake or king oyster), sliced

• 3–4 garlic cloves, minced

• 1 tbsp cooking oil

• 1 tbsp oyster sauce

• 1 tsp soy sauce

• ½ tsp sesame oil

• ¼ cup water or vegetable broth

• Salt & pepper, to taste

Instructions

1. Prep the vegetables

• Wash and cut broccoli into bite-size florets.

• Slice mushrooms evenly.

2. Blanch the broccoli

• Bring a small pot of water to a boil.

• Drain and set aside.
  This keeps the broccoli green and crunchy.

3. Stir-fry the aromatics

• Heat cooking oil in a pan over medium heat.

• Add minced garlic and sauté until fragrant (about 20–30 seconds).

4. Cook the mushrooms

• Add sliced mushrooms into the pan.

• Stir-fry until they soften and release moisture (2–3 minutes).

5. Add the broccoli + seasoning

• Add the blanched broccoli.

• Pour in oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and water/broth.

• Mix well so the sauce coats all the vegetables.

6. Simmer briefly

• Let it cook for another 1–2 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

• Season with salt and pepper to taste.

7. Serve

• Transfer to a plate and enjoy while warm.

• Great as a side dish or combined with rice/noodles.
