Broccoli with carrots



Should have taken down the recipe right after cooking it. My bad. These are the ingredients I vaguely remember. :P

Ingredients
  • Broccoli
  • Carrots
  • 1 tbsp oyster sauce
  • 1/4 cup of water
  • 1/2 tsp sugar

Method

Blanch the broccoli with water (and salt) before stir-frying and simmering with other ingredients.
