How to Make Beef With Broccoli

  1. Prepare the broccoli: Cut the broccoli head into florets. Thinly slice the stalk.
  2. Marinate the beef: In a bowl, combine the sliced beef, cornstarch, soy sauce, sesame oil, and sherry. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  3. Stir-fry the broccoli: Heat 3 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the broccoli and stir-fry for 1 minute until slightly tender-crisp.
  4. Add water and cook: Pour in 2 tablespoons of water and cook for another 2 minutes. Remove the broccoli from the pan and set aside.
  5. Stir-fry the beef: Heat the remaining 3 tablespoons of oil in the same pan over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  6. Combine and serve: Add the cooked broccoli to the beef. Stir well to combine and cook for another 2 minutes. Serve immediately over steamed rice, garnished with sesame seeds (optional).
