Beef and Broccoli

Amount Ingredient
1 pound Beef
4 cloves Garlic
3 slices Ginger
1 tablespoon Wine
1/2 tablespoon Sugar
2 tablespoons Cornstarch
1/2 tablespoon Oyster Sauce
1/2 tablespoon Seasame Oil
2 bunches Broccoli
  1. Slice the beef into moderate slices, about 1/8 inch thick. Smash the garlic to release the flavor (smash it so that the inside extrudes a little out of the outer skin.) Slice the Ginger into 3 1/16 inch slices. Then, add the beef, 2 cloves of garlic, ginger, wine, sugar, cornstartch, and oyster sauce.

  2. Put the mixed ingredients in the refridgerator to marinate. Depending on how much flavor you want in the dish, you may want to marinate it for up to two days.

  3. When have completed the marination, fill up a pan so that it is just enough to cover the sliced beef. Heat the oil until it boils, then cook the marinated beef until it is tender.

  4. In another pot, fill it with water and when the water boils, put the broccoli in for 1 to 2 minutes.

  5. Drain the broccoli in the sink and run cold water over it.

  6. Remove all but about 2 tablespoons of oil from the pan and then add the remaining 2 cloves of garlic, broccoli, and stir for 1 to 2 minutes.

  7. Then, add the beef and stir.

  8. Add the cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water. When the dish is sufficiently cooked (taste it to see if you feel that it is done), add the seasame oil.
