Preparation

Step 1

In a large frying pan (must be able to hold the broccoli in the second step), heat the oils on medium high until shimmery. Add the garlic and almonds and ginger if using. Sauté, stirring often, until slightly crispy and beginning to brown. Leaving as much oil in the pan as possible, transfer the garlic and nuts to a paper towel. Add the prepped broccoli, stir to coat with oil and cook until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients, cover and let cook for another 5 - 10 minutes until liquid is almost evaporated. Taste and adjust seasonings. Transfer to a serving bowl, top with or stir in garlic mixture.
