Amazingly easy to follow. Super delicious. I pre-cooked it in the evening, intending to have my hubby eat for tomorrow’s lunch since I’ll be out tomorrow. I ended up eating more than half! Will buy more bokchoy tomorrow and cook again 🙂

What do you consider a “bunch” of Bok Choy? I cook for myself and so generally half recipes. But, when you say 3 bunches for the regular recipe is that just three baby bok choy, or does a bunch include multiple plants? An example of approximate weight would be super handy.
