Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb flank steak thinly sliced against the grain
  • 4 cups broccoli florets
  • 1/3 cup soy sauce
  • 2 tbsp brown sugar

Method
 

  1. Whisk the soy sauce and brown sugar with 1/4 cup water.
  2. Heat a lightly oiled skillet or wok over high heat and sear the beef in batches for 1–2 minutes. Remove.
  3. Add the broccoli and 2 tablespoons of water, cover and steam for 3 minutes.
  4. Return the beef, pour in the sauce and toss for 1–2 minutes until glossy.
  5. Serve over rice.

Notes

Freeze the steak for 20 minutes before slicing. It is much easier to cut thin.
