Ingredients
- 400 grams broccoli florets
- 200 grams button mushrooms
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 1.5 tablespoons soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons red pepper flakes (optional)
- 60 milliliters water
Directions
Step 1
Wash the broccoli florets and mushrooms thoroughly. Cut the broccoli into bite-sized pieces and slice the mushrooms thinly.
Step 2
Peel and finely mince the garlic cloves.
Step 3
In a large skillet or wok, heat the olive oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Step 4
Add the minced garlic to the skillet and sauté for about 30 seconds, stirring constantly, until fragrant but not burnt.
Step 5
Add the sliced mushrooms to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they release their moisture and begin to brown.
Step 6
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet along with the water. Cover with a lid and let the broccoli steam for 4-5 minutes, or until it becomes bright green and tender-crisp.
Step 7
Remove the lid and stir in the soy sauce, black pepper, and salt. Add red pepper flakes if you prefer a bit of heat.
Step 8
Toss everything together for another 2-3 minutes on medium heat until the flavors meld together and the excess liquid evaporates.
Step 9
Transfer the broccoli and mushrooms to a serving dish and serve warm as a side dish or light main course.
