Greens with Asian Oyster Sauce

Something I always liked. But in the "regular" grocery stores, hard to find stalky, leafy greens like Chinese Broccoli, which I am using here. Good for you, pretty easy to make, tastes great. What's not to like? Almost any stalky greens will work for this, you just may need to adjust cooking time.
Some people don't like the thick stalks as much, so you can split them lengthwise in those cases. If they are really long, cut them down, but you may need to cook the stalks longer than the leaves in that case, so do the stalks first, for a couple minutes, add other leaves the last minute or two in the blanch and maybe even the skillet part. Enjoy.

I usually have these ingredients in my refrigerator, so I make this dish often. It is a quick dish which can be a main dish, so it is perfect for a busy day.

You can also use bok choy or Chinese chives.-I used the bite-sized atsuage this time, so I just cut it into half thickness (about 1 cm thick). For 2 servings. Recipe by rose12 cookpad.japan -

Oven Roasted Green Beans with Garlic Oyster Sauce Oven Roasted Green Beans with Garlic Oyster Sauce
I'm not all that preachy about how to cook or eat, but I am all about the gospel of incorporating more fresh produce into our diets. I'm a firm believer that if people just had more delicious experiences with vegetables, they'd love them like I do.Green beans (aka String Beans, Snap Beans) are super high in fiber and Vitamins A and C, among other nutrients, and this is a delicious and fun Asian-inspired finger food recipe for them that easily gets peeps eating half a pound each. It could also be a great alternative to your usual Thanksgiving green beans recipe.By the way, if you don't already have oyster sauce in your pantry, you'll find it a great one-stop seasoning for stir frys, Asian inspired pan fried noodles, and fried rice, among other things. It does have oysters in it, but it doesn't really taste that much like oysters - think of it like a thicker, earthier, slightly smokier condiment than soy sauce that you can use much in the same way for cooked preparations. x -

Chinese Style Squid & Bok Choy with Oyster Sauce Chinese Style Squid & Bok Choy with Oyster Sauce
I really wanted to get the bok choy to soak up some flavor. I made this and it turned out really simple and delicious, so I uploaded it so you all could enjoy it too.If you have the Chinese seasonings, adding a little bit will strengthen the flavor and give it a Chinese feel (if you add too much it will become too salty), but just using oyster sauce is still delicious. If you cook the squid too much they will become tough.From the time you start cooking until it's finished, it will only take about 5 minutes. Recipe by Hanano arashi cookpad.japan -
