This immune boosting dish with garlic and ginger and vitamin C-packed broccoli is a terrific winter flu buster to serve alongside grilled chicken or fish.

Ingredients
½ tbsp sesame oil
2 cloves garlic, crushed
½ cup broccoli stalks, cut to a similar size as the bamboo shoots
1 small can bamboo shoots, drained
1 small can water chestnuts, drained and sliced in half horizontally
1 tbsp ground kudzu
Method

Heat the oils in a wok and stir fry the broccoli florets, bean sprouts, garlic, and ginger in a non-stick frying pan for 3 minutes with 3 tablespoons of stock. Add broccoli stalks, water chestnuts and bamboo shoots and toss for further minute.

Mix the kudzu with enough cold vegetable stock to make a smooth paste then continue to add the stock until it's combined. Stir the stock with the soy sauce into the vegetables. Simmer for 1 minute and serve.

Note: Camellia tea oil is available from the health section of most supermarkets. Like olive oil it has a high percentage of monounsaturated fat with the added benefit of a high smoke point.
