Notes & Variations on Broccoli & Kale Stir Fry

For even more flavour, you can toast the sesame seeds in a dry wok, before you start cooking. Cook them for 2-3 minutes until some of them start to "pop". This releases their delicious flavour.

You don't have to use the Japanese flavourings. Use any stir fry sauce you have to hand.
