Bok Choy and Hamburger

Based on my Aunt Susie’s recipe, this one brings back happy memories of afternoons spent with cousins.

Ingredients:
– 1 pound ground beef
– 1 bunch bok choy, chopped, leaves separated from stalks
– 2 T olive oil
– 2 cloves garlic, chopped
– 1 C beef broth
– 1/4 C water
– 1 T corn starch
– Soy sauce, to taste

Instructions:

Brown ground beef. Drain, then set aside.

Add olive oil to saute pan, and add bok choy stems. Stir fry for 3-5 minutes, until getting tender. Add garlic, then leaves. Stir fry for 2 minutes more, until leaves are starting to wilt. Add beef broth and bring to a simmer. Simmer all veggies until tender. While simmering, mix corn starch and water with a fork. Add beef and cornstarch mixture to veggies, and stir. Sauce should thicken. If there isn’t enough sauce, add 1/4 C-1/2 more water.

Serve over rice.
