Creamy Beef Broccoli


I'm a big fan of simple dish. I admit. Being a mother of 3 (6 yr to 6 mths) & a worker makes me want to act & move fast. Cooking included :), and i'm well aware that stir fry is one of the fastest way to do it. As usual, i pick up my kids after work & think what i'm going to cook for my family all the way home. To cook something that only needs 30 minutes to be done. So i decided to try this recipe. I saw it somewhere online, but i didn't keep it. This is one of the Chinese cooking, but i add something which is not 'chinese' haha..i add heavy cream. Simply because i want my beef taste creamy & its still taste good. This is what happened when u read too much food blog & too much cookbook..heheh..u will mess up with the original recipe. Here is my version...

Beef Broccoli
  • 1 bunch fresh broccoli (cut into florets)
  • 500g flank steak (thinly slices)
  • 1 tsp cornstarch
  • 1 tbsp oil
  • 1 tsp black pepper
  • 1 tbsp soy sauce
  • 2 garlic cloves (minced)
  • 2 slices fresh ginger (finely minced)
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • Salt
Marinate beef with cornstarch, oil, soy sauce & black pepper for 30 minutes.
In the meanwhile, steam the broccoli until soft & tender, set aside.
Heat the frying pan & add oil.
Add minced garlic & ginger & stir fry over medium high heat for 20 seconds.
Add beef & stir fry for another 3 minutes.
Add heavy cream & salt to taste.
Place steamed broccoli on the plate & the beef on top of the broccoli.
