Notes:

I learned this recipe taking a cooking class from Sydney and Chef Pat of Quarantine Cooking. My broccoli wasn’t looking too good when I got it out of the fridge, so I used cauliflower. I wish I’d used Spinach instead. Mostly because we just aren’t huge cauliflower fans. It tasted great, just prefer the texture of spinach.

Chef Pat had some great insight he shared, including the difference between dark and regular soy sauce. Dark Soy Sauce (in Thai cooking) is a sweet soy sauce, hence the molasses used to make it from regular soy sauce. If you plan to buy dark soy sauce, make sure it has sugar or molasses in the ingredients.
