He’s using gailan. The leaves are the best part, but the stems are very tender and very good as well. I wouldn’t substitute broccoli for gailan, I’d look for something with more of a bitterness to it like mustard greens, arugula (my favorite green), dandelion. Watercress would be cool. Sometimes the choice of veg in a recipe will alter it more than the choice of protein.

Malaysian dish NOICE...just so y'all know, we call this hokkien Mee in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. His recipe is a richer, but easier to prepare at home version of what we get in restaurants here. The dish doesn't usually contain so much expensive seafood, usually it just has shrimp, chicken, a sizeable amount of lard, crispy pork crackling bits and it's normally cooked in woks over those Chinese restaurant jet-engine stoves that gives the dish a unique smokey-seared flavour referred to, over here as "wok hei". Cool stuff!!
