I prefer to use baby bok choy for this recipe, but you can also use large bok choy. The cook time is really quick, so have all the ingredients ready before you start.

Directions

  1. Heat a wok over medium heat. Add oil and heat until shimmering. Add garlic and stir-fry until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add bok choy and cook for 30 seconds. Add soy sauce and sugar, then season with salt; cook for 1 minute.
