Ingredients

  • 1 T neutral oil
  • 1/3 lb broccoli, trimmed, the stems cut into pieces no more than 1/8" thick
  • salt
  • 1/4 t Sugar (Granulated)
  • 1/4 c stock
  • 1 T soy sauce

Method

Put the oil in a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat.  When it's hot, add the broccoli, raise the heat to high, and cook, stirring, until it's bright green and glossy and beginning to brown, about 3 minutes.

 

Sprinkle with salt and add the sugar and stock.  Stir and continue to cook until almost all the liquid evaporates and the broccoli is tender, about 2 minutes more.  Stir in the soy sauce, taste, and adjust the seasoning, and serve.

Notes

This was quite good - the soy sauce makes it a great side dish in and of itself.  Don't add the soy sauce if going to add cheese, though.
