Ingredients
1. For marinade and sauce
2. 2 tablespoons dry sherry (or you can use the same amount of water)
3. Vegetables and flavoring
Step-by-Step Method
Mix the sauce
In a small bowl, whisk the soy sauce, dry sherry and cornstarch until no lumps remain. Since the starch will settle to the bottom, you will stir it once more right before cooking.
Prepare the broccoli
Place the frozen broccoli in a strainer. If you want, you can cook it faster by turning it in boiling water for 1-2 minutes and then draining it immediately; Be careful not to soften it too much.
Extract the flavors
Heat a large pan. Add the garlic and grated ginger and stir for 20–30 seconds until fragrant; Be careful not to burn it.
Sauté the broccoli
Add the broccoli to the pan. Sprinkle some of the salt and heat it over medium heat for 2-3 minutes until it remains firm.
Add the sauce and thicken
Mix the soy sauce and starch mixture you prepared again and pour it into the pan. Cook, stirring, for 1–2 minutes; When the sauce becomes glossy and slightly thickened, remove it from the heat. If necessary, add a little water to thicken the consistency.
Serve
Serve hot. If you put rice pilaf or noodles on the side, the plate will be more balanced.
