Oyster Beef With Broccoli

Labels: { , , }

This is a rather convenient and delicious Chinese stir-fry. It comes with broccoli florets and thinly cut beef slices, sirloin or rump steak, gently blanched in hot oil and stir-fried with ginger, spring onion and garlic and well-enhanced with oyster sauce.

MarinadeSauce
  • 300 g Broccoli florets
  • 1 clove Garlic, crushed
  • 1/3 tsp Salt
  • 1/3 tsp Chicken bouillon powder
  • 350 g Rump steak, sliced into thin strips
  • Sunflower oil
  • 3-5 Ginger slices
  • 1 stalk Spring onion, sliced
  • 1 clove Garlic, sliced
  • 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
  • 1/2 tbsp Sugar
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • 1 tbsp Oyster sauce
  • 1 tsp Maggi sauce
  • 1 tsp Cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp Water
  • 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine
  • White pepper powder to taste
  1. Cut the beef across the grain into thin slices. Add in marinade and set aside for 20 minutes. Combine the ingredients of sauce in a bowl and set aside. Wash and drain the broccoli florets.
  2. Heat a large skillet with half cup of oil to 150C/300F. Add the marinated beef slices, stirring to separate, cook until the colour of beef has changed and nearly cooked. Remove the beef and drain on paper towels.
  3. In another skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil until hot, add the crushed garlic, stirring briefly until aromatic. Add the broccoli florets, sprinkle the salt and chicken bouillon powder over, and cook the broccoli, for 5 minutes, until they are tender but still crunchy. Remove and arrange broccoli florets around the edge of a serving plate, leaving the stems towards the center.
  4. Clean the skillet and add a tablespoon of oil. Add in sliced ginger, spring onion, and garlic. Stir until aromatic. Return the beef to the skillet. Whisk the sauce to recombine, then add to the skillet, stirring quickly to thicken. Turn the heat off. Spoon the beef in the center of the serving plate. Serve immediately with steamed rice.

One of my favorite dishes to order at a Chinese restaurant...I have a feeling yours is even better!

I'll have to admit, I really have never tried my hand at homemade Asian delights. I really have no idea how hard it would be. Any tips or tricks you could pass along for beginners?? And what is Maggi sauce??

I'm bookmarking this delicious looking recipe to make this week, Angie. What a great way to use the current harvest from my garden's exuberant broccoli plants!

@Paul Jennette
Maggi seasoning is basically a mix of water, salt,sugar..etc. I used it here instead of light Chinese soya sauce.
Paul,if you haven't prepared any Chinese dishes at home before, I would recommend to get some bottled sauces (like those from Lee Kum Kee)to play with first, you know..they really help you to get a hang of some Chinese food.

Ah, this is one classic dish not only for us in Asia - but a staple dish in American Chinese restaurants!

Oyster Sauce is probably one of my favourite Chinese sauces, that and black bean. The beef in your recipe looks so tender, as if it could just melt.

Mmm...I love this dish. I'm also cooking beef today, for lunch and dinner. But sadly I don't have broccoli. Can't believe there was no broccoli in the supermarket today. I think I went there too early this morning.
