Cut the broccoli into bite-sized florets and rinse thoroughly under cold water.
Peel and finely grate the fresh ginger. Mince the garlic cloves and set them aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and water to create the stir fry sauce. Set aside.
In a large wok or skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Add the grated ginger and minced garlic to the hot wok. Stir fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to let it burn.
Toss the broccoli florets into the wok. Stir fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the broccoli turns bright green and becomes tender-crisp.
Pour the prepared sauce over the broccoli and mix well to coat all the florets evenly. Cook for another 1-2 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly.
Season the dish with salt and black pepper to taste. Stir to combine.
Sprinkle sesame seeds over the stir fry for added flavor and garnish.
Remove from heat and serve immediately as a side dish or over steamed rice for a light meal.
