Beef and Broccoli recipe

Ingredients:

• 1000g beef (sliced thinly) 600g frozen broccoli (thawed and drained) 4 tablespoons vegetable oil Salt and pepper, to taste (I didn't use any.)

For the Marinade:

2 tablespoons soy sauce 2 teaspoons sesame oil 2 teaspoons cornstarch

For the Sauce:

• 1/2 cup soy sauce 4 tablespoons brown sugar 8 cloves garlic, minced 4 teaspoons fresh ginger, grated 2 teaspoons cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons water
• 1 cup beef or chicken broth

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Beef: Combine the beef with the marinade ingredients. Let it sit for 15 minutes. Prepare the Sauce: Mix all the sauce ingredients except the cornstarch and water. Set aside.
2. Cook the Beef: Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large pan over high heat. Add the beef in batches to avoid overcrowding, cooking until browned. Remove each batch from the pan.
3. Cook the Broccoli: In the same pan, add the remaining oil. Add the thawed broccoli and cook until heated through.
4. Combine and Sauce: Add the garlic and ginger, cook for a minute. Pour in the sauce and bring to a simmer. Add the cornstarch and water mixture to thicken.
5. Final Step: Return the beef to the pan, add the broccoli, and toss everything together to coat with the sauce. Cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Serve with rice.
