Ginger beef & broccoli

Ingredients

• 454 g raw trimmed lean top-sirloin steak, thinly sliced across the grain
• 4 cups broccoli florets
• 2 tbsp neutral oil
• ¼ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
• ½ cup water
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 1 tbsp brown sugar
• 1 tbsp grated ginger
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 4 cups hot cooked rice
• 2 tsp sesame seeds
• 2 scallions, sliced

Let’s make it

1. Whisk soy sauce, water, cornstarch, and sugar in a bowl.
2. Heat 1 tbsp oil in a large skillet. Add broccoli and 2 tbsp water, cover, and steam for 3–4 minutes. Transfer to a bowl.
3. Heat remaining oil over medium-high heat. Add beef in batches and cook, turning, until it reaches 145°F (63°C); let it rest for at least 3 minutes.
4. Reduce heat, add ginger and garlic, and stir for 30 seconds. Rewhisk and pour in the sauce; simmer for 1–2 minutes until thickened.
5. Return broccoli and beef, toss briefly, and serve over rice. Sprinkle with sesame seeds and scallions.
