Beef with Broccoli is a famous stir fry Chinese dish. Almost all restaurants serve this. I got this recipe from my Mom. Everyone in our family just loves her cooking and it tastes just like the one we buy from the Chinese restaurants. This is actually very quick to make after the marinating time.

SERVES 4 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1/2 kg beef sirloin tip, sliced thinly into strips (like sukiyaki-thin)
2 tablespoons cornstarch
1/4 cup rice wine
1/4 cup Kikkoman soy sauce
1 tablespoon sugar
2 green onions, cut into small pieces about 1/2 inch
1 head broccoli, cut diagonally across the stem into small florettes
2 teaspoons oyster sauce
1 pinch baking soda
1/4 cup water, approx. just for it not to be dry and to have a little sauce
1-2 tablespoon cooking oil

Directions

1
Pound sliced meat strips with the back of the knife until tender. Set aside.
2
Combine cornstarch and rice wine.
3
Add meat to cornstarch and rice wine mixture and marinate for at least 30 minutes.
4
Combine Kikkoman soy sauce and sugar. Set aside.
5
In the meantime, cut the broccoli into small florets, cutting the small stems diagonally; discard the big stalk.
6
Heat oil in a wok over medium flame.
7
Stir fry marinated beef; keep stirring until it changes color, but only until it's half done (half color).
8
Add onions and the kikkoman with sugar mixture.
9
Add the broccoli and oyster sauce; keep stirring for 5 minutes or until cooked; while adding also a pinch of baking soda to the broccoli.
10
Add 1/4 cup water and stir fry for another minute.
11
Serve warm.

Oh my! I'm expecting my second child and have been craving this dish, but the wallet has to be tightened. So i thought i would try this recipe. It hit the spot! and i am very very very picky when it comes to Chinese food (i only order from one place). I did double the sauce, and added carrots and mushrooms. Oh yeah and i used chicken instead. I might try 1/2 a tea spoon less of oyster sauce. but i did go heavy on it the first time. And i added sesame oil to my cooking oil, just a little bit. Yummy thank you so much! my husband thinks its better than the restaurants

A good recipe that we very much enjoyed, it was easily prepared and very satisfying. My only reservation was that it was a little salty for us, so probably, like other reviewers, I would hold back on the oyster sauce next time. I subbed chicken for the beef, as we don't eat red meat. I served it over rice, and we had no leftovers, good recipe! Made for Aussie/NZ swap # 25, February 2009

This is a very good beef and broccoli recipe. I followed the ingredients per recipe. The only change I would make is to add the green onions at the last minute so they are just fresh looking. Made for PRMR 2008.

Wonderful! I made this for Little Miss (DD). Hubby is working away and I don't eat red meat and she said it was delicious. It only took me about five minutes to prepare all the ingredients, 30 minutes to marinate the meat, and the rest was easy to put together. Great instructions. Thank you Pneuma
