(just for preparing the meat; does NOT count the part of preparing the broccoli)

Does Chinese broccoli and beef sound too difficult? I can assure you that you will think it differently after making this meal.  In fact, it is even better than buying take-out from the restaurant.

Best of all, you spend less money and feed more mouths. And you get all the credits and compliments. Nothing feels better than that, huh?

CHEF NOTES

I am pairing this easy beef stir-fry with my other recipe, simply sautéed broccoli. Follow the instructions to cook the vegetables. Then, assemble the beef and the vegetables together to make a good looking meal.

To make it more filling, serve with perfectly steamed white rice or noodles.

You and I know this very well.  There is always one or 2 family members don't eat certain food. My family is the perfect example. There are several of them don't eat beef due to the religious reason. One is a vegetarian.

So, if there are vegetarians in your family, you can cook and serve the vegetables and meat separately with different pots and dishes. Then, everybody's happy.

Tips for Everything On The Table At The Same Time

In order to serve everything on the table at the same time, (in this case) i.e. broccoli, beef and rice, check out the cook time of each recipe.

Whichever takes the longest cook time, start working on that one first. Comparing to broccoli and rice, this beef dinner recipe takes the least time. So, you work with the meat last.

Why Flank Steak?

Flank steak is a very tender piece of meat. It takes a very short time to cook through. Adding the superior dark soy sauce to the meat while it is raw, it literally does the browning process for you before it is even cooked.

Do NOT add any salt on raw beef, it will toughen the meat. Enjoy!

This ebook will teach you to cook authentic Chinese food in a healthy way. It will also show you how to get the beautiful colors, texture and taste you get from your favorite Chinese restaurants.
