Stir-Fry Beef With Broccoli - cooking recipe

Ingredients

230 g beef fillet or lean rump steak, thinly sliced
2-3 florets of broccoli
2-3 chopped garlic cloves
2 teaspoons of sugar
2-3 teaspoon of corn starch
1 teaspoon of soy sauce
1 tablespoon of oyster sauce
1-2 teaspoons of sesame oil
1/2 cup of chicken broth (optional)

Preparation

Mix the beef with 1 teaspoon of sugar, 1 teaspoon of corn starch, and soy sauce


Take the remaining corn starch, and mix with 3-6 teaspoons of water. Set aside for later use.

Heat the wok or frying pan with cooking oil, then add the garlic. Once the garlic starts to turn a little brown, add the beef.

Remove the beef once nearly cooked. Next place the broccoli into the wok.

Add the chicken broth (or 1/2 cup of water), oyster sauce, and 1 teaspoon of sugar. When the mixture comes to a boil, cover the lid until the broccoli is cooked (3-4 minutes).

Add the beef, and wait until the sauce comes to a boil. Retrieve the corn starch mixture that was prepared from Step #1, and make sure to mix it again, as the corn starch may have settled to the bottom. Add the mixture into the wok, and stir. This will thicken the sauce.

Finish off by adding the sesame oil.
