Woo Can Cook | Broccoli Beef Stir Fry (The Defenders)

hello hi everyone! Wesley here. Today we’re taking a shot at one of my favorite stir fries of all time, which is a broccoli beef stir fry. For those not familiar, a broccoli beef stir fry is an entirely American creation, and is one of the more popular dishes that you’ll come across in Chinese take out spots throughout the states. It features a tender seared steak, flash cooked crispy broccoli, and a savory sauce based that heavily relies on the use of the big 3 that you will now have come across in many Woo Can Cook recipes for deeply savory sauces: dark soy sauce, black vinegar and oyster sauce. We’ll also be using this one as an opportunity to explore the use of baking soda and corn starch, which is going to help us science our way to the most tender piece of steak that I have ever created. Hope you try it.

It will be out on Friday July 2nd, 2021, so bookmark the recipe here, and be sure to subscribe and hit the bell on YouTube to get notified when it’s out!

Woo Can Cook is a series where we reproduce fun foods and recipes from my childhood. Some of them are authentically Chinese and/or pan-Asian, but a lot of them are odd Americanized versions that I inherited from my parents and grandparents while growing up in the Bay Area/California.

We're live streaming every Mon/Tues/Thurs at 6:30PM PST, with new recipes out every Friday!
