1

Cut the baby bok choy in half and set aside. You can also leave them whole if preferred.

Rinse the bok choy thoroughly, especially between the leaves, to remove any dirt.

Heat a wok or large fry pan over medium-high heat and add sesame oil.

Once the oil is hot, add the bok choy and turn the heat down to medium.

Toss the bok choy to coat it evenly in the oil.

6

Season with a little salt and pepper.

Add a few tablespoons of water and cover the pan to steam the bok choy.

Keep an eye on the bok choy as it cooks; it should only take a few minutes to cook while retaining some crunch.
