Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 tablespoons Cooking Oil
  • 1/4 teaspoon Salt
  • 10 ounces Bok Choy (use Baby Bok Choy) cut lengthwise into quarters
  • 2 teaspoon Organic Ginger Root finely chopped
  • 8 ounces Straw Mushrooms drained
  • 1/2 cup Waterchestnuts sliced
  • 3/4 teaspoon Cornstarch dissloved in 1 tablespoon water

Seasonings

  • 1/2 cup Chicken Stock or Vegetable Stock
  • 2 tablespoons Dry Sherry or Chinese Rice Wine
  • 1 tablespoon Black Bean Garlic Sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Chile Garlic Sauce

Directions

Combine the seasoning ingredients in a bowl.
 
Bring a pot of water to a boil. Add 1/2 tablespoon of the oil and the salt followed by the bok choy; cook until the bok choy is tender-crisp, 3-4 minutes. Drain, rinse with cold running water, and drain again. Arrange the bok choy on a serving platter; keep warm.
 
Place a wok or wide frying pan over high heat until hot. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons oil, swirling to coat the sides.

Add the ginger and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 10 seconds. Add the mushrooms and water chestnuts; stir-fry for 30 seconds.

Add the seasonings and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and simmer for 3-4 minutes.

Add the cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring, until the sauce boils and thickens.
 
Pour the mushroom mixture over the bok choy and serve.
