Rinse and cut the broccoli into small florets. Peel and finely chop the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and water. Set aside.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over medium-high heat.
Add the chopped garlic and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Increase the heat to high and add the broccoli florets. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until the broccoli starts to become tender but still crisp.
Pour the prepared sauce over the broccoli and continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, making sure the broccoli is well coated with the sauce.
Season with salt and black pepper to taste.
Once the broccoli is cooked to your desired texture, remove from heat and transfer to a serving dish.
Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately as a side dish or light main course.
