SAUTEED BOK CHOY WITH MUSHROOMS

Steps:

• Cut off the base of the bok choy stalks; discard. Separate the stalks and leaves. If the stems of the bok choy leaves are large, chop finely. Wash the leaves and stalks; drain in a colander.
• Heat the oil in a large skillet or saucepan over medium-low heat. Stir in the green onions, mushrooms, garlic, crushed red pepper, salt and black pepper; cook, stirring often, 5 minutes. Stir in the bok choy and coconut milk; cook, stirring until the leaves are tender and stalks are still crunchy, 3-6 minutes.

CHICKEN AND BOK CHOY SOUP

Steps:

• Chop the onion and garlic in the food processor.
• Fry the onion and garlic in the oil.
• Chop the chicken breast into cubes and then add to the food processor and pulse to get ground/minced chicken. Alternatively, you can buy chicken mince and chop the onion finely. I like to know what has gone into my chicken mince!
• Add to the onion and stir to brown the chicken.
• Add the vegetable stock (you could use chicken stock if you have it), a good pinch of salt, grind of pepper and the soy sauce.
• Twist the leaves off the Bok Choy (I find that easier and quicker than chopping them).
• Rinse any dirt off the ribs and chop coarsely. Add to the soup.
• Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Roughly chop the leaves and add to the soup.
• Simmer for another 2 minutes.
• Serve.
