We frequently add this colorful broccoli to our bentos. I wanted something different than just eating boiled broccoli with mayonnaise, so I came up with this fragrant, slightly charred taste.

The garlic adds a rich flavor.
Don't over-boil the broccoli or it will break apart too easily when frying.
Bacon and sausage (as shown) go great with broccoli.
It's also delicious with mushrooms (shimeji, maitake, etc...). Recipe by mimimine
