Kai-lan (also written as gai-lan) is the Cantonese name for a vegetable that is also known as Chinese broccoli or Chinese kale. It is a leaf vegetable featuring thick, flat, glossy blue-green leaves with thick stems and a small number of tiny flower heads similar to those of broccoli. Broccoli and kai-lan belong to the same species ''Brassica oleracea'', but kai-lan is in the group ''alboglabra'' (albus+glabrus white and hairless ). Its flavor is very similar to that of broccoli, but slightly more bitter. It is also noticeably stronger. Broccolini is a hybrid between broccoli and kai-lan, produced by Mann Packing Company, Inc. ''Kai-lan'' is eaten widely in Chinese cuisine, Common preparations include kai-lan stir-fried with ginger and garlic, and boiled or steamed and served with oyster sauce. It is also common in Vietnamese cuisine, Myanmar (as ကိုက္လန္) and Thai cuisine. ''Kai-lan'' can be sown in late summer for early-winter harvesting. Seedlings planted in autumn will last all winter. ==Gallery== File:Cải rổ.jpg|Kai-lan File:baby kailan chinese.jpg|Baby kai-lan served Cantonese style File:Phat khana mu krop.jpg|Phak khana mu krop: Thai style fried Chinese broccoli with crispy pork 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kai-lan」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
