Serving with Oil Topping

Unfortunately, restaurants in the China serve Chinese broccoli wit oyster sauce by topping it up with the extra oil. The extra amount of oil really destroys its texture and taste. It is so unfortunate that the real outlook and taste of Chinese broccoli with oyster sauce has been changed significantly with the passage of time.

Steam in the Microwave

This is a very sorrowful situation that restaurants have completely changed the recipe of Chinese broccoli. The original recipe is to steam the broccoli. However, most of the restaurants just fry the Chinese broccoli for a while in the oil.

The frying in the oil has very health-related concerns. This method reduces the natural texture of the vegetable and it starts losing its nutrition level as well.

Studies have reported that if any vegetable is fried, then it will not be as effective as it is naturally. So is the case with the restaurant chefs; they deep fry the Chinese broccoli and ruin the natural benefits.

On the other hand, I strongly recommend steaming the Chinese broccoli in the oven. What you need to do is just wash the leaves of the Chinese broccoli and apply some salt on it.

Wrap them in the cling wrap and out into the microwave for a couple of minutes. Turn of the microwave after a couple of minutes and there comes out the fresh and smoky vegetable.
