Stir-Fried Beef with Broccoli

Serves 4


Ingredients:

400g rump steak
1 tbsp cornflour
2 tbsp light soy sauce
1 tbsp dry sherry
1 tsp sugar
150g broccoli
3 tbsp oil
2 spring onions (white parts only), sliced
½ chicken or beef stock
1¼ tbsp oyster sauce, optional


Method:

1. Slice the beef very thinly. Put in a dish with the cornflour, soy sauce, sherry and sugar. Mix well and leave for 30 minutes.
2. Divide the broccoli into small florets and stir-fry in the oil for about 1 minute. Add the spring onions and fry briefly. Push to one side of the pan and add the beef and marinade. Stir-fry on high heat until the meat changes colour, about 2 minutes.
3. Add the stock and cook on high heat, stirring, for about 1 minute. Stir in the oyster sauce, if used.
4. Serve with white rice.
