Ingredients
  

Stir-Fry
  • 1 pound flank steak thinly sliced
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
Sauce
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger grated
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 1/4 cup water

Equipment

  • Wok or skillet

Method
 

  1. Toss the sliced beef with the cornstarch. Whisk the sauce ingredients together.
  2. Blanch the broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute, then drain.
  3. Heat the oil in a wok over high heat and stir-fry the beef until browned, then remove.
  4. Add the broccoli and sauce and simmer 1-2 minutes until glossy.
  5. Return the beef, toss to coat, and serve over rice.

Notes

Slice the beef thin against the grain and velvet it with cornstarch for tenderness. Blanch the broccoli briefly so it stays bright and crisp-tender.
