Chinese Beef and Broccoli (Extra Saucy Take Out Style)
"Faster than take out, healthier and tastier. This is a restaurant recipe! This recipe makes a saucy stir fry because that's how I like it. I also made the sauce very smooth rather than having bits of garlic and ginger in it - again, this is simply my personal preference. Adapted from a recipe by The Woks of Life, a Chinese cooking blog (worth checking out if you enjoy Chinese food!) - Beef with Broccoli recipe. This recipe serves 2 extremely hungry people or 3 ordinary people (with rice)...."
