Ingredients

• 500 g beef sirloin (thinly sliced against the grain)
• 300 g broccoli florets
• 3 tbsp oyster sauce
• 2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp dark soy sauce
• 1.5 tbsp cornstarch
• 4 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 tsp ginger (peeled and minced)
• 2 cloves garlic (minced)
• 1 tsp sugar
• 1 tsp sesame oil (optional)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon of cornstarch, 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and 2 tablespoons of water. Add the thinly sliced beef to the mixture, toss to coat, and marinate for 10 minutes.

Step 2

In a separate small bowl, mix the oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, remaining 1/2 tablespoon of cornstarch, remaining 2 tablespoons of water, and sugar. Stir until well combined and set aside.

Step 3

Bring a pot of water to a boil. Blanch the broccoli florets for 1-2 minutes until they turn a bright green. Drain immediately and run under cold water to halt the cooking process. Set aside.

Step 4

Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the surface.

Step 5

Add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until just browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.

Step 6

In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir in the minced ginger and garlic, cooking for 30 seconds or until fragrant.

Step 7

Return the beef to the wok along with the broccoli florets. Pour the prepared sauce over the mixture.

Step 8

Stir-fry everything together for 2-3 minutes, ensuring the beef is fully cooked and the broccoli is crisp-tender. The sauce should thicken and coat the ingredients.

Step 9

Drizzle sesame oil on top (if using) and give the dish a final stir before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot over steamed white rice or noodles.
