Chinese Sausage And Broccoli With Oyster Sauce Recipes

CHINESE BROCCOLI (GAI LAN) WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Boil 2 quarts/liters of water in your wok or a large pot, and add the salt and oil directly to the water.
• When the water reaches a good raging boil, carefully add the whole stalks of Chinese broccoli. (Depending on how much you have, you may want to work in two batches.)
• Use tongs or a pair of chopsticks to submerge the veggies completely and cook for 1-2 minutes, until tender but still a bit crunchy. (If you like the veggies soft, leave them in a bit longer.)
• Use a pair of tongs or chopsticks to take the Chinese broccoli out of the water. Carefully shake off excess liquid and arrange on a plate. Once they are all plated, you can drain any excess water that may have pooled on the plate.
• Drizzle a couple tablespoons oyster sauce evenly over the veggies and serve!

RESTAURANT STYLE CHINESE BROCCOLI WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Trim ends off Chinese Broccoli. If any stems are super thick, cut them in half (you want all stems approximately the same width).
• Steam Chinese Broccoli using whatever method you want - I microwave in a steamer on high for 4 minutes. The stem should be just cooked - not super soft and floppy.
• Stack the Chinese broccoli together and cut into 4"/10cm lengths, then stack neatly on top of each other.

BLANCHED CHINESE BROCCOLI WITH OYSTER SAUCE

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Wash the Chinese broccoli; then cut off the ends, if not already trimmed, and cut into bite-sized pieces (about 2 inches long).
• In a large saucepan, add enough water to cover the broccoli. Add the salt, baking soda and ginger and bring to a boil.
• While waiting for the water to boil, prepare the sauce. Combine the chicken broth or water, oyster sauce , rice wine or dry sherry, and sugar.
• Bring to a boil in a small saucepan, then turn the heat down and keep warm while blanching the broccoli.
• Add the Chinese broccoli to the boiling water. Cook until the stalks are tender but crisp-about 3 to 4 minutes.
• Rinse in cold running water and drain.
• Pour the sauce over the broccoli.
• Serve immediately and enjoy.

BROCCOLI WITH CHINESE SAUSAGE

Steps:

• In a metal pie plate or heatproof flat dish set on a round metal rack in a wok or in a steamer steam the sausage, covered, over boiling water for 20 minutes, transfer it with tongs to a cutting board, and cut it diagonally into 1/8-inch-thick slices. Mound the sausage in a large shallow serving dish and keep it warm, covered, in a preheated 250 degree oven.
• In a heated wok heat the oil with the ginger and salt over high heat until the oil just begins to smoke, add the broccoli, and stir-fry the mixture for 2 minutes. Drizzle the wine around the edge of the wok, stir-fry the mixture for 1 minute, or until the broccoli is bright green and crisp-tender, and transfer it to the dish, arranging it around the sausage.

BEEF AND BROCCOLI

Steps:

• In a large bowl, whisk together the wine, 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce and the cornstarch. Add the beef to the bowl, and toss to combine, then cover the bowl, and set aside for 20 minutes or so.
• To make the sauce, combine in a small bowl the remaining soy sauce, the oyster sauce and the chile-garlic sauce, and mix to combine, then add a tablespoon of water and mix again. Set aside.
• Heat the 1/2 cup of oil in a wok set over high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add about half the beef to the wok, and stir-fry until it is browned and crisp and barely cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl or plate, and set aside. Then repeat with remaining beef.
• Pour off the oil in the wok, wipe it out with a towel and return it to the stove over high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon oil, and swirl it around and heat it until it is smoking. Add the broccoli and cook, tossing and stirring frequently, until lightly charred in spots, about 2 minutes.
• Add 2 tablespoons water to the wok, and toss and stir the broccoli in the steam for an additional 2 minutes, then return beef to the wok, followed by the sauce. Cook, stirring and tossing frequently, for 30 seconds or so, then add the butter, and stir and toss again for 30 seconds more. Serve immediately, with rice.
