Print

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Trim off the bottom tip of the Chinese broccoli. Optional: peel rough fibers at the end of the root for a more tender bite. Wash and clean.

  2. 2

    Marinate the beef with dark soy sauce, cornstarch, soy sauce, black pepper and baking soda. Mix well and set aside for at least 15 mins.

  3. 3

    Thinly slice whole garlic to make garlic chips.

  4. 4

    In a large pan or wok, boil water and blanch Chinese broccoli for 30 seconds. Remove and soak in ice bath to stop the cooking. Strain dry.

  5. 5

    Remove all the water from wok and heat 2-3 tbsp of cooking oil in the wok on medium-low heat. Continuously stir the garlic so it doesn’t burn. Remove from oil once the garlic has turned lightly golden. The residual heat will continue to cook it to a deeper golden color.

  6. 6

    In the same oil, sauté marinated beef until 90% cooked through.

  7. 7

    Add blanched Chinese broccoli and sesame oil and toss well. Cook for another 1-2 mins.

  8. 8

    To serve, top with fried garlic chips and enjoy!
