Simple Stir Fried Broccoli with Button Mushrooms

This is a vegetable stir fry that I used to prepare early in the morning to complement my proteins. Frying vegetables in the wee hours of morning is not an ideal situation, yes?

To make it easier on me, I prep the broccoli on a Sunday. Washed and cut into small florets and stored in an airtight container. The mushrooms are easy. I just slice them before cooking.

I fry the broccoli using my non-stick pan. It's easier to handle compared to my heavy wok. Heat some olive oil and add chopped garlic and then in with the broccoli florets. I don't add any water, I stir the broccoli frequently and it cooks in its own moisture.

When the broccoli is almost done, I add the sliced mushrooms and these cook very quickly. Then in goes a good dash of soya sauce. It sizzles and I switch off the flame and give a good stir. Done!

I also cook it during weekends and serve with other dishes like this one with grilled pork loin and roasted sweet potatoes.

Or just with the protein for a low carb meal.

Great with steaks too. So easy and so good.
