For the Sauce:
- 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce

- Add the sliced Yu Choy to the wok and stir-fry over high heat for 2-3 minutes or until the greens are partially cooked.
- Pour the sauce mixture over the Yu Choy and continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and coats the greens evenly.
- Once the Yu Choy is tender and the sauce has thickened, remove the wok from the heat.
- Transfer the Stir-Fried Yu Choy to a serving dish and serve it hot as a delicious side dish or accompaniment to your favorite Chinese main course.
