     8 ounce sugar snap peas, trimmed
     1 clove garlic, crushed
     1 teaspoon finely grated ginger
     1 teaspoon brown sugar



     Directions:


     1.  Fill a steamer pot or saucepan with water to just below the base of a steamer basket.
         Bring water to the boil.

     2. Cut broccoli into small florets, trimming stalks to about 2 cm. Peel remaining stalk and cut diagonally into
         thin slices. Trim buk choy and slice stems. Trim spring onions and slice thinly on the diagonal.

     3. Combine broccoli, buk choy, spring onion and sugar snap peas in a large bowl. Add garlic and ginger; toss
         well. Transfer to steamer basket. Steam, covered, until vegetables are crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes.

         Drizzle over the vegetables. Serve hot or chill briefly in the refrigerator before serving.
