Beef with Broccoli in Oyster Sauce

Hello there! It's been a while since I last blogged. I've been busy with my getaways and I'm just tamaders :P

Here's the recipe of my specialty, Beef with Broccoli in Oyster Sauce.

1. For the marinade,  mix soy sauce, rice wine, 1 egg white, 1 tsp brown sugar and 1 tsp corn starch. Marinate the beef strips for an hour.


2. While marinating the beef, blanch the broccoli. This is done by soaking the broccoli florets for 1-2 mins or until the color becomes brighter green, then draining the hot water and then rinsing with running water until the florets go back to room temperature.

3. Deep fry the beef strips until the color becomes a little darker, but not golden brown. I think if you make it golden brown, the beef will become crispy and not tender.

4. On a separate pan, saute garlic and onion.

5. Add mushroom and the beef.

6. Add the blanched broccoli.

7. For the sauce, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce and a little sesame oil. To make the sauce thicker, add a mixture of cornstarch and water.

TADA!!!
