Servings: 3
Ingredients
- 11 oz broccoli
- 3 Tbsp water
- 2 tsp neutral oil
Seasonings:
- 1 Tbsp mirin
- 1 Tbsp soy sauce
- 2 Tbsp shaved bonito flakes (katsuobushi)
Instructions
- Separate the broccoli florets from the stalk. If the florets are large, cut them in half or into quarters. For the stalk, peel off the tough outer layer and slice it into thin, bite-sized pieces.
- Put the broccoli and water in a pan, then drizzle oil over the broccoli. Heat the pan over medium heat. Once the water starts to simmer, cover the pan and let it steam for 3 minutes.
- Remove the lid and continue cooking until any remaining water, if there is any, has evaporated. Then, add seasonings (mirin, soy sauce, and shaved bonito flakes) and stir-fry until the seasoning liquid has almost evaporated.
Notes
- You can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
