Gingered Broccoli
1 bunch broccoli, broken into florets (large ones cut in half lengthwise)
2 to 3 teaspoons freshly grated gingerroot, to taste (I used 2
tablespoons because we love ginger!)
1 tablespoon sweetener of choice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1/4 cup water
1 tablespoon arrowroot or 2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved in a little
water
Steam the broccoli for 5 minutes, until crisp-tender.
In a wok or heavy-bottomed skillet, saute the ginger for about 1 minute
in about 1 tablespoon of the "broccoli water." Add the broccoli and stir
together for about 1 minute, until the broccoli is coated with the
ginger.
Mix the sweetener, soy sauce, and water. Pour over the broccoli and
continue to cook, stirring, for another 3 minutes. Stir in the arrowroot
or cornstarch mixture and cook, stirring, until the sauce thickens and
the broccoli is glazed.
Serve immediately.
