Method

Vegetable Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Broccoli

    Wash the broccoli florets under cold water. Cut into bite-sized pieces and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Garlic Sauce

    In a small bowl, mix together soy sauce, sesame oil, minced garlic, and red chili flakes. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Cook the Broccoli

    In a large skillet over medium heat, add the vegetable broth and bring it to a simmer. Add the broccoli florets and cover. Cook for about 5 minutes until they are bright green and tender but still crisp.

  4. 4

    Add the Sauce

    Remove the lid and pour the garlic sauce mixture over the broccoli. Stir well to coat and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat.

Rice Preparation

  1. 5

    Rinse the Rice

    In a fine mesh strainer, rinse the white rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  2. 6

    Cook the Rice

    In a medium pot, combine the rinsed rice and water. Bring to a boil over high heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the rice has absorbed all the water.

  3. 7

    Fluff the Rice

    Remove the pot from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork.
