Ingredients:

  • 450g lean beef, cut into thin strips
  • 300ml beef stock
  • 350g fresh broccoli
  • 1 garlic clove
  • 1 tsp. fresh chopped ginger
  • 4 tbsp. plain flour
  • 2 tbsp. caster sugar
  • 2 tbsp. soy sauce
  • Few tbsp. sunflower oil

Method of Preparation:

  1. Mince the garlic clove. Cut the broccoli into small florets.

  2. Mix together the flour, sugar, soy sauce and stock in a small bowl. Stir until the sugar and flour are dissolved.

  3. Heat the oil in the wok until hot and then stir fry the beef strips for two or three minutes. Add the ginger, garlic and broccoli. Stir in the stock mixture and then bring the whole thing to the boil.

  4. Simmer the dish for 5 to 10 minutes or until the sauce has thickened.

  5. Serve this dish hot.

This is great as it is but it’s also great served over rice or with some prawn crackers. This recipe will serve at least four people.

Made this yesterday evening, it was very nice. If you don't like broccoli, you could use chopped mushrooms instead.
