Description of the Dish

"Broccoli is my favorite vegetable (when I’m in the UK), and this dish is typically the first thing I eat when I get back from any kind of overseas trip. For some reason, I really crave it whenever I’m away, and digging into a bowl of steamed rice, a crispy-edged fried egg, and garlicky broccoli feels like a super-nourishing and delicious welcome home." — Verna Gao, Have You Eaten?

Ingredients List

1/2lb (225g) fresh broccoli, cut into florets
2 tbsp cooking oil of choice
3 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1/2 tbsp dried shrimp (optional)
1 carrot, thinly sliced
Pinch of MSG (optional)
Salt, to taste

Preparation Instructions

Place the broccoli florets in a pan filled with cold water and bring to a boil. Once the water is boiling, drain immediately and rinse the broccoli briefly under cold running water. Set aside.
Heat the cooking oil in a large frying pan on medium heat. Add the garlic and dried shrimp and sauté for a minute or two until fragrant.
Add the carrot and continue to stir-fry for a few minutes before adding the blanched broccoli.
Cook for another 2 minutes, until the vegetables are just tender. Season with salt, to taste, and serve immediately.
