Cải Làn Sốt Dầu Hào (Gai Lan w/ Oyster Sauce)

Gai Lan is unlike another vegetable; its stem is unctuous, tender, and sweet; Its spinach-like leaves, are reminiscent of broccoli with a minimal amount of bitterness. And to highlight these characteristics, the Gai Lan is blanched to create a bright, fresh, crispy (simultaneously tender) green. These flavors are perfectly balanced with a saline, earthy, and umami, seasoned oyster sauce.
