I learned to cook this recipe from Stephen Yan many years ago. He was famous for his Television Shows -WOK WITH YAN.
Ingredients:
1/2 lb beef flank steak, sliced thinly across grain
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon sambal oelek (optional)
1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
1 tablespoon cornstarch or 1 tablespoon tapioca starch
1 lb fresh broccoli, broken into florets and then sliced in half
4 tablespoons peanut oil, divided
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup water
2 garlic cloves, crushed
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, mix together soy sauce, pepper, Sambal Oelek, sesame oil and corn starch.
2. Add sliced beef, coat well and let marinate for 15 minutes.
3. In a WOK, heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil until smoke begins to rise.
4. Add broccoli florets and salt, stir well.
5. Now add 1/2 cup of water, cover with a lid and cook on high heat for 3 - 4 minutes or until steam starts to escape from the edge of the lid.
6. Remove broccoli and any liquid to a bowl.
7. Reheat WOK to high heat, add the remainder 2 tablespoons of peanut oil.
8. When hot, add garlic and brown for 1 minute, stirring often.
9. Add sliced beef and marinade and stir-fry until the color of meat changes, about 1 minute.
10. Return broccoli and liquid to the Wok and mix; stir-fry for 30 seconds.
