Ingredients

Units Scale

Ingredients for Beef Marinade

  • 1 lb Beef Shank
  • 1/4 cup of Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons Oyster Sauce
  • 3 tablespoons of Sesame Oil
  • 6 cloves of Garlic
  • 2 tablespoons of Fresh Ginger
  • 4 cups of Broccoli Florets

Ingredients for Beef Sauce

  • 1/4 cup of Low-Sodium Soy Sauce
  • 1 tablespoon of Sesame Oil
  • 1/4 cup of Water

Ingredients for Rice

  • 2 cups Rose Rice
  • 2 3/4 cups of Water

Ingredients for Toppings

  • Roasted Black Sesame Seeds
  • Chili Garlic Sauce


Instructions

  1. Place the beef shank pieces into a pot of water and boil on high heat for 1 hour. Remove the foamy film that collects from the top, disregard it and occasionally stir.
  2. Start by rinsing your rice in cold water about 2-3 times and strain in a strainer. Place a tablespoon of olive oil and place rinsed rice into a pot. Fill bouillon from boiled beef, into our pot of rice and make sure your rice is fully submerged. Close the lid of the pot and put the fire on high until it comes to a full boil. Move the pot to a smaller fire, lowering your heat to low, and allow this to cook until done.
  3. Fillet your beef down the center to make two equal pieces. Chop your beef into thin 1/4″ thick strips and place into a large bowl. Grade your Garlic and fresh Ginger and set it aside. Start to marinate your beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil, and give it a mix. Set this aside and allow this to marinate for 25 minutes in the fridge.
  4. Heat oil in a large skillet, add in your beef strips and saute for 2 minutes on high heat. Then add grated garlic, ginger, and sesame oil then saute for another 1 minute. Add 1/4 cup of soy sauce and 1/4 cup of water then add your broccoli. Place cover and allow the broccoli to steam and cook for another 2 minutes on high-medium heat. To thicken our sauce add a pinch of cornstarch. Serve with a side of rice, top it with roasted sesame seeds and a spoon of chili sauce and make it a night you’ll never forget! ENJOY

Notes

  • Chop In Advance! – Make sure to prep your vegetables and chop them in advance. This will help the cooking process flow perfectly!
  • Fresh Broccoli vs Frozen Broccoli (Blanched) – I don’t prefer using frozen broccoli because it is already pre-cooked and frozen. I prefer it to be fresh. But if you choose to use frozen, make sure to thaw completely and pat dry before placing it into the pan along with the beef.
  • Make a Thicker Sauce – If you add cornstarch to your beef, as a result, it will create a thicker sauce
