Stir-Fried Broccoli with Cashews and Dark Soy Sauce
Dark soy sauce has a molasses-like consistency and adds both sweetness and heartiness to this dish. Mirin lends a measure of brightness, oyster sauce an intriguing savory flavor and cashews a delightful nuttiness. Together, they’re a tasty way to perk up pleasantly bitter broccoli florets in a quick stir-fry.
