Photo: Stir-Fried Beef and Broccoli Recipe
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons minced garlic
- 4 teaspoons grated ginger
- 4 teaspoons Chinese black vinegar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 teaspoons hoisin sauce
- 3 teaspoons orange blossom honey
- 4 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
- 2 pounds beef flap steak, thinly sliced across the grain*
- 4 tablespoons cornstarch
- 2 large heads broccoli, cut into florets and blanched
- 1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
- Steamed white rice, for serving
Directions
Combine the garlic, ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, hoisin sauce and honey. Mix well and set aside until ready to use. Preheat a wok or a large skillet. Once it has reached a medium heat, add 1/2 of the peanut oil. Dredge the beef in the cornstarch, lightly shake off any excess cornstarch and add 1/2 of the beef to the pan. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1/2 of the broccoli to the pan and shake frequently.
Add 1/2 of the sauce and stir to evenly coat the beef and broccoli. Cook until the sauce thickens about 5 minutes. Repeat the process with the other half of the ingredients. Serve immediately with steamed white rice.
*It will be easier to slice the beef in thin strips if it has been partially frozen.
Chef's Note: this may be able to be done in 1 batch if using a very large wok or skillet.

Scrumptious! Easy to cook and ready in minutes.I did not have the Chinese black vinegar so I substituted with a seasoning from Maggi ( a black liquid that you can find in the ethnic food aisle in the Germany"s section. So good that there were no leftovers :(

This was easy and delicious. My kids don't like spicy food so I subbed teriaki sauce for hoisin and marinated the beef in teriaki overnight for added flavor. Served it over rice but there wasn't enough sauce to cover the rice so will double to sauce next time. A winner!

Yummy and Easy! I did cut back on the ginger just a little. I forgot to add the red pepper flakes because the recipe did not say where to add them, but it was still great!
