For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of red pepper flakes to the sauce.
Gai Lan can be slightly bitter. Blanching it properly helps to reduce the bitterness.
Serve immediately for the best texture. The sauce will continue to absorb into the broccoli over time.
If you don't have fresh ginger, you can use 1/2 teaspoon of ground ginger as a substitute.
