Yummy Broccoli!

This is Spicy!

450 gm (1 lb) fresh broccoli - florets separated and stem peeled
1 Tbsp oil
2 Tbsp minced garlic
1 tsp sea salt
1 tsp sugar
freshly ground black pepper
2 Tbsp cooking wine (rice wine or dry sherry)
1 Tbsp chilli bean sauce
2-3 Tbsp water (approx.)
1 tsp sesame oil

Mix cooking wine, sea salt, sugar, pepper in a bowl.
Blanch (or steam) the broccoli pieces in a saucepan of boiling water for about 2-3 minutes. Drain and then plunge into a bowl of cold water for about 30 seconds. Drain again thoroughly.
Heat a wok over high heat until hot. Add oil and when it is very hot and smoking, stir fry garlic and chilli bean sauce briefly.
Add in the cooking wine mixture and broccoli. Stir fry for about 4 minutes. If it is getting a bit dry, add in a few tablespoon of water at a time.
Add the sesame oil and continue to stir fry for 30 seconds. Dish up and serve.
