Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Garlic-Sesame Broccoli Stir-Fry.
Step 1
Start by bringing a large pot of salted water to a rolling boil.
Step 2
Once it's bubbling, toss in the purple sprouting broccoli and let it cook for about 3 to 4 minutes, just until it transforms into a vibrant dark green.
Step 3
This quick blanching not only brightens the color but also helps retain its nutrients.
Step 4
After that, drain the broccoli and set it aside, ready for its next delicious adventure.
Step 5
In a spacious skillet, warm up a mix of vegetable oil and toasted sesame oil over medium-low heat.
Step 6
As the oils heat up, add in the sliced garlic and sauté it gently, stirring frequently for about 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 7
You’ll know it’s ready when the garlic becomes fragrant and takes on a lovely light brown hue—this is where the magic begins! Now, it’s time to bring the broccoli back into the mix.
Step 8
Add the drained broccoli to the skillet and stir-fry it for another 2 to 3 minutes, making sure every piece is beautifully coated in that aromatic garlic oil.
Step 9
Don’t forget to season it with a pinch of salt to enhance all those wonderful flavors.
Step 10
When everything is perfectly combined and heated through, serve your stir-fried broccoli hot, and for a delightful finishing touch, sprinkle some toasted sesame seeds on top.
Step 11
This dish not only looks stunning but also bursts with flavor, making it a fantastic addition to any meal.
Step 12
Enjoy your vibrant and tasty creation!.
