Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Broccoli florets
- 4 pieces Garlic cloves
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the broccoli florets thoroughly under cold running water and let them drain. If the florets are too large, cut them into bite-sized pieces.
Peel the garlic cloves and mince them finely.
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water until well combined. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetable oil and swirl to coat the surface.
Add the minced garlic to the pan and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Be careful not to burn the garlic.
Increase the heat to high and add the broccoli florets to the pan. Stir-fry for 3–4 minutes, or until the broccoli is bright green and tender-crisp.
Pour the prepared sauce over the broccoli. Stir well to coat all the florets evenly and let it cook for 1–2 minutes, or until the sauce thickens slightly.
Drizzle sesame oil over the stir fry and season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Remove from heat and transfer the broccoli garlic stir fry to a serving dish. Serve immediately with rice or as a side to your favorite main course.
