Baby Bok Choy with Cashews



Sometimes the simplest things are the most enjoyable. My mother whipped up this quick and easy baby bok choy dish the other night. It was so good I made her make it again the next day so I could watch with pad and pen in hand.

This is hard on mom actually, as she never makes anything the same way twice, and she never measures (obviously not a baker). I make her weigh things.

“How much bok choy is that mom?” She looks at me as if I’ve just asked her how many miles there are to the moon. I get the kitchen scale down from the cabinet.

Why cashews? Because that’s what we had on hand. Almonds would work too. If you want you could jazz it up a bit with a little freshly grated ginger and a shake of chili pepper flakes.
