Moon Bok with Black Bean Sauce

 

 

Prep time: 5 minutes 

Cooking time: 10 minutes 

Serves: 4 

Ingredients:

  • 2 Bunches Moon Buk 
  • 2 Birds Eye Chilli 
  • 70ml Black Bean Sauce  
  • Cooking oil  

Method:

  1. Prepare the Moon Bok by removing the older outer leaves. Halve the larger ones lengthwise and leave the smaller ones whole.

  2. Heat a large frying pan over high heat and drizzle it with some cooking oil. Once hot, sear the Moon Bok with the inner side facing down for 2 minutes until golden. Avoid overcrowding the pan; it's better to do this in two batches.

  3. Remove the seared Moon Bok from the pan and set them aside. Repeat the process with the remaining Moon Bok until they are all seared.
  4. Add the black bean sauce, sweet chilli sauce, and ¼ cup of water to the pan. Bring it to a boil over medium heat.

  5. Return all the Moon Bok to the pan and toss them well until they become sticky and thoroughly cooked.

  6. Finely chop 1 or 2 chillies and sprinkle them over the Moon Bok.

  7. Serve hot and add more dressing if desired.

    Tips:
  • Serve as a side dish with rice and any type of protein.
  • Feel free to use other types of Asian greens in this recipe.
  • To make it a main dish, you can add tofu, noodles, or meat if you wish.
