Here's a simple recipe/guide for easy yet delicious beef broccoli.
1. Marinate beef
I sliced my pork (had no beef)and coated it in a little (like maybe 2 tablespoons?) of soy sauce, added chopped garlic, and grated a tiny bit of ginger, cornstarch (maybe a teaspoon?) and added the secret ingredient>>>>> *baking soda* (like a teaspoon).
Let it marinade for at least a half hour. You'll hear the baking soda work it's magic.
2.Prep the Broccoli
Cut up your broccoli how ever way you like and then blanch it for a few minutes in hot water and then drop in an ice bath (I just poured out the hot water and added cold water since we don't have any ice).
3. Stir Fry Beef
Stir fry on high heat until meat is cooked (few minutes) and then add in the broccoli.
You can add a splash of chicken broth (or stock or water....whatever you have on hand).
The beef (or pork) will be velvety with a nice glaze on it. If you prefer to have a saucy beef broccoli then add in some sauce(a simple shoyu, water, cornstarch mix or whatever you like. But I liked it either way)
4. EAT!!!
mmm....with some rice or noodles...yessss
AND THATS IT!
SIMPLE YET DELISHHHHHIOssooooo!
Other things that would make it even more yum yum.....
.
oyster sauce, rice wine or dry sherry, mushroom seasoning (in the marinade)
and maybe some a little bit of sesame oil at the end...
