1 tablespoon canola oil

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon sugar

1 teaspoon soy sauce

1/2 teaspoon white pepper

1 pound broccoli florets

1/4 cup chicken broth

1/4 cup oyster sauce

2 tablespoons cornstarch

3 tablespoons canola oil

1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh ginger

Instructions

Toss the beef, 1 tablespoon oil, 1 teaspoon cornstarch, 1 teaspoon salt, sugar, soy sauce and white pepper in a bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
Blanch broccoli: Place broccoli in boiling water for 1 minute. Remove and drain. Rinse with cold water and drain. Mix 1/4 cup chicken broth, the oyster sauce and 2 tablespoons cornstarch. Set aside.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan or wok over medium-high heat until not. Add the 3 tablespoons oil, beef, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until beef is brown, about 3 minutes. Transfer beef to a plate.
Add 2 tablespoons oil to the frying pan or wok. Add the broccoli and 1/2 teaspoon salt and stir-fry for 1 minute. Stir in 1/2 cup chicken broth and heat until boiling.
