Cut 2 heads of broccoli into bite-sized florets, discarding the stems for this recipe.

Finely chop 4 cloves of garlic.

Grate about 2 teaspoons of ginger.

Thinly slice 2 green onions, using the white parts for cooking.

Thinly slice half of a mild red chili for color (optional).

In a small container, combine 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1.5 tablespoons of oyster sauce, 0.5 teaspoons of dark soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of sugar, 1 tablespoon of shallots in wine, 1 teaspoon of chicken bouillon powder, 1 teaspoon of vinegar, 0.5 teaspoons of white pepper, 0.5 cups of water, and 1.5 tablespoons of cornstarch. Mix well to create the sauce.

Fill a pot with water and bring it to a boil. Once boiling, add a pinch of salt and blanch the broccoli florets for about 1 minute.

Shock the blanched broccoli in ice cold water to preserve its vibrant green color.

In a large wok or pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium-high heat.

Add the chopped garlic, grated ginger, and the white parts of the green onions to the pan and sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.

Once the garlic starts to brown, add the drained broccoli and stir-fry for about 1 minute to coat it with the oil.

Stir the sauce mixture again and pour it into the wok, tossing everything together for about 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens.

Turn off the heat and add 1 teaspoon of toasted sesame oil, the green onions, and red chilies. Mix well to combine.
