BEEF AND BROCCOLI



Beef and Broccoli image

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     main-dish

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 pound broccoli florets
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons cornstarch, divided
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 pound flank steak
1/3 cup beef or chicken stock
2 teaspoons rice wine
1/4 cup oyster sauce
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 cloves garlic, minced

Steps:

  • Microwave the broccoli in a glass bowl covered with plastic wrap (holes poked for ventilation), about 1 to 2 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon cornstarch and baking soda. Slice the beef against the grain into thin strips and add it to your marinade. Let it sit for at least 20 minutes, or as long as overnight in the refrigerator.
  • In a separate small bowl, stir together the stock, rice wine, oyster sauce and remaining 1 teaspoon cornstarch until the cornstarch is fully dissolved.
  • Heat a wok or large skillet on high heat and add the oil. When a wisp of white smoke appears, toss the marinated beef and garlic into the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, continually moving the beef so it browns on all sides but is still rare. Once the beef is seared, add the broccoli and cook for an additional minute. Stir in the sauce and keep it all moving. Don't be afraid to scrape any bits off the bottom of the pan before they start to burn. Once the sauce has turned into a nice thick glaze, about 1 minute, serve immediately.

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

⅓ cup oyster sauce
2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
⅓ cup sherry
1 teaspoon soy sauce

BEEF AND BROCCOLI



Beef and Broccoli image

Here is a streamlined, powerfully flavorful recipe for a delivery-food standby: velvety wok-fried beef in a oyster-soy sauce, served in a forest of green. ''It's diaspora food,'' the chef Jonathan Wu told me, describing the cooking of Chinese immigrants to the United States and a dish that is almost unknown in China but beloved in America. The recipe is a version of the one Wu's mother made for dinner when he was growing up outside Hartford, Conn., with a little chile-garlic paste added for zip and, thanks to the Brooklyn chef Dale Talde, a pat of butter swirled into the sauce at the end. This provides a plush gloss that is far better than the traditional cornstarch slurry. It is midweek family cooking at its best.

Categories     dinner, weekday, main course

Time 45m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1/3 cup Shaoxing rice wine, dry sherry or sake
3 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pound beef - chuck or rib steak - sliced thin against the grain
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/2 tablespoon chile-garlic sauce, or to taste
1/2 cup plus 1 tablespoon neutral oil, like canola, grapeseed or peanut
1 pound broccoli, the head cut into florets and the stems peeled and cut into planks
2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, whisk together the wine, 2 tablespoons of the soy sauce and the cornstarch. Add the beef to the bowl, and toss to combine, then cover the bowl, and set aside for 20 minutes or so.
  • To make the sauce, combine in a small bowl the remaining soy sauce, the oyster sauce and the chile-garlic sauce, and mix to combine, then add a tablespoon of water and mix again. Set aside.
  • Heat the 1/2 cup of oil in a wok set over high heat. When the oil is hot and shimmering, add about half the beef to the wok, and stir-fry until it is browned and crisp and barely cooked through, about 2 minutes. Transfer to a bowl or plate, and set aside. Then repeat with remaining beef.
  • Pour off the oil in the wok, wipe it out with a towel and return it to the stove over high heat. Add the remaining tablespoon oil, and swirl it around and heat it until it is smoking. Add the broccoli and cook, tossing and stirring frequently, until lightly charred in spots, about 2 minutes.
  • Add 2 tablespoons water to the wok, and toss and stir the broccoli in the steam for an additional 2 minutes, then return beef to the wok, followed by the sauce. Cook, stirring and tossing frequently, for 30 seconds or so, then add the butter, and stir and toss again for 30 seconds more. Serve immediately, with rice.

Tips:

  • Prep your ingredients ahead of time: This will help you save time and ensure that everything is ready when you start cooking.
  • Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better your dish will taste. Look for fresh, tender beef and crisp, flavorful broccoli.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the beef and broccoli, make sure to do it in batches if necessary. If you overcrowd the pan, the food will steam instead of sear and won't have as much flavor.
  • Use a good quality sauce: The sauce is what really brings this dish together. Make sure to use a sauce that is flavorful and has a good balance of sweet and savory flavors.
  • Serve over rice or noodles: Beef with broccoli is traditionally served over rice or noodles. This helps to soak up the delicious sauce and makes the dish more filling.
