Sesame Bok Choy

This sweet grilled salad makes a great side dish and reminds me of my days in Taiwan.  I adapted it from the Microwave Gourmet, a cookbook my grandmother was excited about.

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons Oriental sesame oil
1 tablespoon sesame seeds
ribs from 2 bunches of bok choy (preferably baby bok choy), chopped
2 tablespoons mirin
2 tsp sugar

Combine oil and seeds in sauce pan and heat until seeds brown.  Add bok choy.  Cover and simmer until bok choy is tender.  Add mirin and sugar and stir until all the bok choy is well covered.  Serve and enjoy:)
