Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

⅓ cup oyster sauce
2 teaspoons Asian (toasted) sesame oil
⅓ cup sherry
1 teaspoon soy sauce
1 teaspoon white sugar
1 teaspoon cornstarch
¾ pound beef round steak, cut into 1/8-inch thick strips
3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus more if needed
1 thin slice of fresh ginger root
1 clove garlic, peeled and smashed
1 pound broccoli, cut into florets

Steps:

  • Whisk together the oyster sauce, sesame oil, sherry, soy sauce, sugar, and cornstarch in a bowl, and stir until the sugar has dissolved. Place the steak pieces into a shallow bowl, pour the oyster sauce mixture over the meat, stir to coat well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes in refrigerator.
  • Heat vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat, and stir in the ginger and garlic. Let them sizzle in the hot oil for about 1 minute to flavor the oil, then remove and discard. Stir in the broccoli, and toss and stir in the hot oil until bright green and almost tender, 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the broccoli from the wok, and set aside.
  • Pour a little more oil into the wok, if needed, and stir and toss the beef with the marinade until the sauce forms a glaze on the beef, and the meat is no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Return the cooked broccoli to the wok, and stir until the meat and broccoli are heated through, about 3 minutes.

THE BEST EASY BEEF AND BROCCOLI STIR-FRY



The Best Easy Beef and Broccoli Stir-Fry image

I clipped this recipe from Taste of Home magazine several years ago and have found it to be the best-tasting easy beef and broccoli stir-fry. It is credited to Ruth Stahl. I often use charcoal chuck steak, which is very tender and lean. I also like that it doesn't call for any unusual ingredients.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: For a tender and flavorful curry, use a cut of beef that is suitable for stewing or braising, such as chuck roast, flank steak, or brisket.
  • Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of spices and yogurt or buttermilk helps to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor.
  • Brown the beef: Browning the beef in a hot pan before adding it to the curry helps to develop its flavor and color.
  • Use a flavorful curry paste: The curry paste is the base of the curry, so it's important to use a good-quality paste that is packed with flavor. You can make your own curry paste or use a store-bought paste.
  • Add vegetables: Vegetables add flavor, texture, and nutrients to the curry. Common vegetables used in broccoli beef curry include broccoli, carrots, potatoes, and onions.
  • Use coconut milk: Coconut milk adds a rich and creamy flavor to the curry. You can use canned coconut milk or make your own coconut milk by blending coconut meat with water.
  • Season to taste: Once the curry is cooked, taste it and adjust the seasonings as needed. You may want to add more salt, pepper, or chili powder to taste.
