1 thumb fresh ginger, peeled & minced
1 finger fresh turmeric, peeled & minced (optional)
½ cup chopped rhubarb (about 3 small stalks)

Fry bacon on low heat to caramelize. When brown & crisp, set aside on paper towel. Add the ginger, turmeric (if using) & rhubarb to the hot bacon fat & sauté on low until softened. Turn up the heat & add the contents of the orange: juice & pulp. Scrape the brown bits from the pan as it bubbles. Add the chopped bok choy stalks & stir-fry for about 5 minutes until softened. Add the chopped bok choy greens & continue to stir-fry until bright green & just wilted. Serve immediately, topped with crumbled bacon.
