Bok Choy (Regrown in my Garden)

The joy of growing food has been a pleasure of mine since I was a young kid. But living in a busy city like Sydney, has meant I’ve had to adapt my gardening to balconies and pots. Discovering the ease with which you can re-grown vegetables from the roots has been a boon. I save the crowns of lettuce, bok choy and shallots, sit them in little glasses of water until they start to regrow and wait for the roots to appear. Then they’re planted in pots on my balcony and I eagerly await their re-growth.

Today, I harvested some bok choy and quickly microwaived it with some Asian sauces and Managed to photograph it before I devoured it.
