Takeaway-style sticky beef and broccoli, but faster: mince instead of steak soaks up a glossy soy–oyster sauce over jasmine rice.

Ingredients

• 75 g Jasmine rice
• 125 g Beef mince
• 0.5 tbsp Vegetable oil
• 5 g Fresh ginger
• 1 clove Garlic
• 0.3 head Broccoli
• 40 ml Chicken stock
• 1 tbsp Soy sauce
• 0.8 tsp Dark soy sauce
• 0.5 tbsp Oyster sauce
• 0.8 tsp Sugar
• 1 pinch Ground white pepper
• 1 tsp Cornflour
• 0.8 tsp Sesame oil
• 0.8 tsp Sesame seeds
• Spring onions × 1

Method

1. Cook the Rice

   

   Cook the rice according to the pack.

2. Mix Sauce & Prep

   

   In a bowl, stir the stock, soy sauces, oyster sauce, sugar, white pepper and cornflour into a smooth sauce with no lumps. Cut the broccoli into small florets, grate the ginger and garlic, and slice the spring onions.

3. Blanch Broccoli

   

   Blanch the florets — give them a brief boil — in a pot of boiling water for 2 minutes so they finish tender-crisp in the wok, then drain.

4. Brown the Mince

   

   Get a wok smoking-hot with the oil and brown the mince hard without moving it too much, 3–4 minutes, then stir in the ginger and garlic for 1 minute more.

5. Toss & Glaze

   

   Tip in the broccoli and the sauce and toss until everything is glossy and thickly coated, 2–3 minutes; finish with the sesame oil. Serve over rice, topped with sesame seeds and spring onions.
