Steamed in microwave two minutes:
one small vidalia, cut into chunks
a handful of garlic scapes, cut into small pieces
one yellow bell pepper, sliced
Add to a pan of hot oil (don't pour it in, reuse the liquid in a few minutes). Toss some cleaned snow peas into the steaming vessel--those get one minute in the microwave.
Stir the food around. Add about an inch of grated ginger and two chopped garlic cloves. Stir around some more.
Add the stems of baby broccoli, chopped. Add a half cup of beef broth and a few dashes of vinegar. (Actually, it was one beef stock concentrate packet in a half cup of water). Some white pepper. The blossoms of the baby broccoli and one bunch of yu choi, chopped into 1-2" lengths. Stir around. Add the snow peas and a handful of bean sprouts. Cover for one minute on pretty high heat.
Stir in about a half cup of cornstarch slurry and stir to thicken, take off heat. Season at the table with salt and sriracha. Bemoan the lack of sesame oil in the house. Eat over brown rice. Eat a second bowl over brown rice cake cooked in beef broth, because the rice was leftover and is all gone.
