Broccolini with Sausage and Shitake Mushroom

Here's a simple quick stir-fried vegetable dish that I made over the Easter weekend. It's delicious and healthy – just make sure to get young broccolini so it's not too tough or too stringy.


Ingredients:
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 shallots, finely chopped
1-inch ginger, finely chopped
1 lb broccolini
2 uncooked sausages
10 fresh Shiitake mushroom, destem and cut into slices
3 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Shaoxing cooking wine
2 tablespoons chicken broth
salt and pepper to taste

Directions:

• In a large pan, quickly stir-fry the garlic, shallots and ginger with olive oil over a medium heat for a couple of minutes until fragrant.
• Take the sausages out of the casing, crumble them into the pan and cook for 5 minutes until they are almost cooked.
• Add in the sliced mushroom and cook for 3 more minutes.
• And then add in the broccolini along with the soy sauce, Shaoxing wine and chicken broth.
• Stir well, lower the heat, cover the pan and cook for 5 minutes or so until the broccolini is tender.
• Adjust seasoning using salt and pepper.
