1. Mince garlic and tumis in oil. If you are using chicken (use only fleshy part like breast) or prawn, add them and cook.
2. Put in brocolli. You can season with just salt and pepper. Or you can make a paste using some oyster sauce and cornflour. Don’t cook the vege any futher, just enough to mix well.
