    Bok choy is type of cabbage that has long, green leaves and thick white stalks that is popular in many Asian dishes. 

    While it is often used in stir-fries or soups, bok choy is also wonderful roasted. Oven roasting bok choy brings out its natural sweetness and creates a slightly crispy, caramelized texture that is irresistible. 

    It pairs well with cooked white rice, noodles, cauliflower rice with a favorite meat or fish, and can be served hot or cold. With its sweet, nutty flavor and tender texture, roasted bok choy is a must-try for anyone who loves healthy and flavorful vegetable dishes.

    Ingredients needed

    Fresh bok choy – you can use regular bok choy or baby bok choy which as a slighly sweeter flavor.

    Garlic – mincing fresh garlic gives the best flavor buy you can also use jarred minced garlic.
