15 mins prep20 mins cook35 mins total
  1. Cook the rice according to the packet instructions and keep it warm while you make the stir-fry.

  2. Whisk the stock, oyster sauce, soy sauce and cornflour mixture in a small bowl until smooth.

  3. Heat the vegetable oil in a large wok or frying pan over high heat. Season the beef strips with the salt and black pepper, then stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until browned. Transfer to a plate.

  4. Add the broccoli to the hot pan with a splash of water. Cover for 2 minutes, then uncover and cook until bright green and just tender.

  5. Add the garlic and ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Return the beef to the pan and pour in the oyster sauce mixture.

  6. Bubble for 2–3 minutes, stirring, until the sauce is glossy and thick enough to coat the beef and broccoli. Stir through the sesame oil and spring onions.

  7. Taste and adjust the seasoning, then spoon the beef and broccoli over the warm rice and serve immediately.

Notes

Slice the beef thinly across the grain so it stays tender during the quick cooking time.
