Chinese Garlic Yu Choy

Chinese Garlic Yu Choy. A delicious, garlicky vegetable side dish that is versatile for any meal! It comes together quickly in 10 minutes! This recipe is vegan.

This is one of my favourite ways to have vegetables especially when I am craving Yu Choy. It is a tasty leafy green that is usually sold at Chinese grocers.

It's not commonly used compared to Bok Choy or Gai-lan but it's delicious! This vegetable has subtle flavour to it. It's not bitter or sweet but just right! I love that it has a stalk and a leaf at the top for a variety of fibrous textures.

This yu choy with garlic works so well combined with noodles especially but here I am featuring as a side dish.
