Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams Broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons Sesame oil
- 3 Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon Rice vinegar
- 1 teaspoon Honey
- 1 teaspoon Red chili flakes
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Toasted sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Wash and thoroughly dry the broccoli florets.
Heat the sesame oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until aromatic.
Add the broccoli florets to the skillet and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, allowing them to cook but remain crisp-tender.
In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, honey, red chili flakes, and water.
Pour the sauce mixture over the broccoli and stir to coat evenly.
In another small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 1 teaspoon of water to create a slurry.
Add the cornstarch slurry to the skillet and stir well. Cook for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and clings to the broccoli.
Remove the skillet from heat and transfer the stir-fried broccoli to a serving plate.
Garnish with toasted sesame seeds if desired and serve hot.
