Steamed Garlic Bok Choy. Simple, delicious and so easy to make. The perfect vegetable side dish to any meal. Takes 10 minutes to make.
This steamed bok choy recipe is so simple that it really doesn't warrant a recipe but I thought it'd be good to put out there in case you need a fresh new recipe idea in the vegetable category.
Asian vegetable recipes tend to be very simple. We prefer the vegetable to really be the star of the show without complicating it.
We usually pair this steamed baby bok choy with a side of white rice and a protein of our choice. Communally shared by the family and this encourages a balanced meal.
In addition, Bok Choy provides great health benefits too. It's high in antioxidants which defend your body against cancer-causing free radicals and reduces chronic inflammation in the body. It's also delicious to eat. (Source: Healthline)
