Directions

1. Heat a wok on medium heat.
2. When the oil is hot add the chopped garlic. Stir fry the garlic for a few seconds,       taking care not to burn the garlic.
3. Add in the sliced shiitake mushrooms and continue to stir fry until the 
    mushrooms are 
    turn soft and starts to release some of its juiced. 
4. At this stage add the broccoli florets and stir fry. You can add a tablespoon of 
    water if the dish if too dry. Add the salt and cover the pan and let the broccoli 
    cook in the steam for about a minute or so.
5. Dish and serve hot.
