I used London Broil/or Top round steak. But you seriously could use any type of steak meat. Don't try and make it with a roast type of meat, stick to the steak category. London Broil/Top Round is the cheapest cut that you can get in the world of steaks. I buy the family pack when it is on sale, and then freeze each steak individually. A good tip for slicing steak really thin is to stick it in the freezer until almost frozen, and then slice it. Don't be intimidated by cooking with steak!
Asian Beef and Broccoli
Meat Marinade
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp sugar
1 1/2 tbs cornstarch
2 tbs soy sauce
2 tbs oil
1 1/2 pounds of steak
The Sauce
1 tbs rice wine vinegar
2 tbs chicken or beef broth
5 tbs oyster sauce (in Asian food isle)
1 1/2 tbs brown sugar
1 tsp sesame oil
2 tsp cornstarch
Other
Broccoli (about 3 large crowns)
1/3 cup water
6 cloves of garlic, minced (2 tbs)
1 inch piece of ginger, grated
1 tsp oil
Mix marinade ingredients in a small bowl. Slice steak into super thin slices, against the grain. Place meat in a bowl, add marinade, and let sit for an hour. Mix up ingredients for the sauce, and set aside. Cut broccoli into florets, and set aside. Minced garlic and grate ginger, set aside in a small bowl mixed with 1 tsp oil.
