Cut stems diagonally into thin slices.

Plunge broccoli into boiling water and cook for 4 minutes or until crisp-tender. Drain well and place on a platter.
Drizzle with oyster sauce mixture.
Recipe Note
If you cannot get Gai Lan (Chinese Broccoli), try this simple but delicious preparation with Western style broccoli or fresh asparagus. Adjust the blanching time according to the size of the vegetables; they should be cooked through but still firm and crisp.
