There’s a deep-seated love of Chinese food in my house. But I don’t love cooking it from scratch. Many of the ingredients are either hard to find, expensive, or unhealthy. So I came up with this Beef and Broccoli to appease my crew. It isn’t as unhealthy, it’s definitely uncomplicated, and it’s pretty close to the real deal. A definite win-win!

Ingredients

Main ingredients

  • 1 and 1/2 pounds beef chunks, as is or sliced into small strips

  • 8-10 unpeeled white baby potatoes, scrubbed well

  • 1 cup beef or vegetable broth

  • 1/2 cup Glicks Soy Sauce

  • 1/3 cup honey or brown sugar

  • 3 cloves garlic, minced or 3 cubes Gefen Frozen Garlic

  • 4 tablespoons water

  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch

  • 2 cups frozen broccoli

  • 1 (15-ounce) can baby corn

  • chopped scallions, as a garnish

  • 1 tablespoon Gefen Sesame Oil

Directions

beef type? Hi what cut of meat works best for this recipe? I know chuck and flanken usually work better for longer slower cooking, but that is not the traditional meat used in beef and broccoli.

It sounds like a pepper steak kind of meal. But i find that cut gets tough. I would do chuck sliced thing.
