Bok Choy and Chicken

Fri, 20 Feb 2004 19:59:14 -0500

So yummy. So easy. So fast. Healthy, too! One of my mom's easy dinners. Bok choy is a leafy vegetable that tastes kind of like a cross between lettuce and cabbage, but also with a flavor of its own. -- posted by ketchupqueen

Wilted Garlic Bok Choy

I recently fell in love with Bok Choy & this is one of my favorite recipes. It is an easy, delicious, healthy & colorful side dish that seems to go with any meal. FYI: The 1TB of olive oil is an approximation, I usually just eyeball it, so you may need more or less. And for all you Monk fans..."Adding to the list Bok Choy." -- posted by Sirpezy

Kung Pao Tofu Rice Salad

Tue, 09 Jan 2007 22:15:12 -0500

This is a surprisingly satisfying vegetarian salad. I got the recipe from Leanne Ely's "Saving Dinner" e-mail service. I have since stopped using the service, but this recipe remains a family favourite. We are meat-eaters but enjoy this anyway! Cooking time is time to cook rice. If you plan ahead and use your rice cooker, this is a very quick meal to throw together! I *think* this is vegan but it might depend on the brands of soy and hoisin sauces you use. -- posted by Gingernut

Stir Fried Greens With Green Beans

Tue, 17 Jul 2007 13:45:27 -0400

A quick & tasty side dish, great as part of an Asian meal. I have used the large bok choy in the past, but have sliced the stem smaller. This will make the dish slightly bitter. The stems should still have some 'crunch'. Adapted from an Australian Women's Weekly recipe. -- posted by Mischka

Baby bok choy is one of my favourite greens and I love to add it to any stir fry. In this recipe I let it go solo because it cooks up super fast! Serve this with some grilled chicken skewers tossed with a splash of mirim, sake and minced ginger. -- posted by cocinera

Spicy Beef With Shrimp and Bok Choy

Mon, 21 Jan 2008 21:29:03 -0500

In my search for recipes using bok choy, I ran across this recipe on Yahoo.com I am trying to introduce my family to new ingedients and they have never eaten bok choy. This sounds like a delish recipe and preparation should be simple. Cook and prep times noted are estimates as I have not yet prepared this stir fry. This would be good served over rice noodles or brown basmati rice. If you try it before I do, please share your thoughts in the review process. NOTE: Shao Hsing (or Shaoxing) is a seasoned rice wine. It is available in most Asian specialty markets and some larger supermarkets in the Asian section. If unavailable, dry sherry is an acceptable substitute. -- posted by Happy Hippie

Fri, 22 Feb 2008 20:20:14 -0500

I got the idea for this from my latest Cookie Magazine. The original recipe called for swiss chard and swiss cheese. I didn't have either on hand so I used bok choy and parmesan instead. Added leeks since I had those too. We had this for dinner tonight. Very tasty. -- posted by DbKnadler

Baby Bok Choy in the Wok

Tue, 28 Oct 2008 16:07:08 -0400

This is a fast and easy recipe for cooking bok choy or baby bok choy. You can adjust the amount of flavor by adding more or less sake/soy sauce mixture (use equal amounts). We've found that adding the sesame oil at the end gives it more sesame flavor, but you could also just cook the bok choy in a mixture of vegetable and sesame oil. When in doubt, it's best to slightly undercook the bok choy. -- posted by Chef #910147

Mongolian Hot Pot

Thu, 12 Mar 2009 00:40:37 -0400

I am posting this recipe because it was in a cookbook I received from NE Lady in the cookbook swap March 2009. I was intrigued by the picture in the cookbook; however, mine didn't turn out looking like the picture! I had way too many noodles and too little broth. The cookbook, "Soups for Any Body" states that it is a mix between a soup and a stew. Mine was pretty thick, so I would add more beef stock to the recipe. I'd also serve more soy sauce with each serving, and allow each diner to add their hot pepper oil. If you let your meat marinate while you chop the vegetables, it gets on the table pretty quickly! I did change it a little...I increased the meat by 4 oz. -- posted by breezermom

Vegetarian Lasagna Chapala

Sun, 18 Oct 2009 10:15:41 -0400

A rich, deep, "meaty" lasagna that will fool most meat eaters!!!! I use the food processor to do all the mincing. Here in Mexico I use requeson with a little crema Mexicana in place of the ricotta. The noodles in this lasagna are not boiled. Be sure to put it together a day ahead of serving. Cooking time does not include prep time. -- posted by davinandkennard
