Steamed Pak Choi

I've met up with my uncle in London twice in the past couple of years and each time we meet we eat in a fancy chinese restaurant and each time we've ordered a side of pak choi. I had never had pak choi before but loved it instantly. It's been playing on my mind recently and when I saw some in Tesco I had to buy some. Straight after that I had to research pak choi and felt very educated after reading this. Then found a recipe to follow here. I had 200g pak choi whereas the recipe is for 750g, but I didn't reduce the amount of the other ingredients and also used an electric steamer for 5 minutes. Tasty and nutritious! i really have to cook pak choi more often.
