Beef and broccoli is a popular and easy Chinese takeout dish. In this video, you will learn my techniques which will ensure your broccoli stays fresh and your beef turns out juicy and tender. Let’s get right into it.
🥢PRINTABLE RECIPE - check back later
*INGREDIENTS FOR BEEF AND BROCCOLI*
*FOR THE BEEF MARINADE*
- 8 ounces of beef (I’m using chuck tender)
- 1 tbsp of Chinese cooking wine [Shaohsing Rice Cooking Wine: geni.us/3hdHAM]
- 2 tsp of light soy sauce [Pearl River Bridge Natural Brewed Light Soy Sauce: geni.us/wABlLXf]
- 1 tsp of cornstarch
- 1/2 tsp of black pepper
- 1/4 tsp of baking soda
- 1 tsp of oil
*FOR THE STIR-FRY*
- 1 cup of broccoli
- 1 tbsp of minced garlic
*FOR THE SAUCE*
- 1 tbsp of oyster sauce [Lee Kum Kee Panda Brand oyster sauce: geni.us/P0u6]
- 1 tbsp of light soy sauce
- 1 tsp of dark soy sauce (just for the color)
- 2-3 tbsp of water
- 2 tsp of cornstarch
- 1 tsp of sugar
- 1 tsp of freshly ground black pepper (or as much as you like)
*HOW TO MAKE IT*
- Slice your beef into thin pieces. I am using chuck tender. Make sure you cut against the fiber. This way, your beef will be less chewy.
- Marinate it with 1 tbsp of Chinese cooking wine, 2 tsp of light soy sauce, 1 tsp of cornstarch, some freshly ground pepper and 1/4 tsp of baking soda. This is what Chinese restaurants do to tenderize the beef- especially if they are using a tough cut of beef. Without baking soda, it’s gonna be a disaster.
- After it is well combined. We make the sauce. 1 tbsp of light soy sauce, 1 tbsp of oyster sauce, 2-3 tbsp of water, 2 tsp of cornstarch, some black pepper
- Cut the broccoli into bite sizes. Blanch it in boiling water for 1 or 2 minutes. Don’t cover it or else the broccoli will lose its green color. Turn off the heat and put it into ice water for 3-5 minutes to stop the cooking process. Take it out and shake off the excess water. Using this technique, the broccoli will stay fresh and crunchy.
- Next, fry the beef. Heat up about 1 tbsp of oil. Give it a toss so the bottom is coated nicely.
- Add in the beef. Try to separate it so most of the beef touches the bottom of the wok. Let one side fry for 15-20 seconds. Use your spatula to flip it over and fry the other side for 15-20 seconds. You should also be able to smell the scent of the smoky beef. So good. Take it out and set it aside.
- In the same wok, add a little bit of oil. Put in some garlic and give it a stir. Pour the sauce into the hot wok. It will start thickening quickly. Then add in the broccoli. Mix it a little bit. Add the beef back into the wok. Coat it nicely. You are done.

I made this yesterday and everyone went crazy over it. Today I am making more. My son says, "You are hired!" You are the new cook in our kitchen. Thank you for such nice videos.
my friends gone crazy for that
Patty Sherwood I also made it....my family loved it. No more take out here!
@Marilyn Dillard ....If you expand "Show More" under the video, that's pretty much a transcript of what she says in the video.
Yummy, thanks for the video
@Marilyn Dillard - she says: 1 TBSP cooking wine, But you can use apple vinegar too;)
I made this at my house tonight.
I'm about as close to being a chef, as I am being a bricklayer (I'm a physically disabled pensioner, lol).
But YOUR recipe, with YOUR video directions, I managed to follow to a tee & it came out PERFECT! Even the 19 year old, fast food critic of our house thought it was amazing!
Thank you luvvy, I'll be making many more dishes, under your direction. ❤❤❤😍😍😘

One of the best chinese food cooking channels.
I made this dish but added carrots for extra flare. Everyone thought that that I picked it up from a carryout other than the our neighborhood carryout. They wouldn't believe me when I told them that I made it. I used the cheapest cut of meat available. It was a chuck roast for $7. It came out perfectly cooked with the velvety texture. I can't believe it. I fed a family of 4 authentic Chinese food for $7. At that price I was able to add a coconut cream pie for dessert. It won't be long before I will challenge Iron Chef Chen Kenichi for his Iron Chef status!!! Lol!
I'm curious. If the meat was $7 and you say you fed 4 for $7, does that mean all the other ingredients were free? Please tell me where you shop, I like free stuff and I want in on the action...
@@billymacktexasdetective5827 🤣🤷🏻♂️
Yeeeeees! This dish is $14 from the takeout near my house. I made it for a family for less that $10. Just as good.
Doing this rn. So good!
Doing this rn. So good!
After receiving my wok yesterday, I have now made the chicken fried rice, this beef and broccoli recipe and the kung pao chicken recipe. Mandy you are awesome!!!! Thanks for putting in all this hard work so those of us who usually cook out of boxes can have authentic chinese food at home at a fraction of the take out price! I made this entire meal for under $10 and everyone loved it!!
Great, I was all set for bed and now I'm starving, that looked like really great beef and broccoli
Same 😫
Same
i keep doing the same thing to myself. and now i have to settle for pb&j cause it's so late D :
Me too
Lol.. ♥️
Thank you very much. Just made this for some Thai friends of mine. I tripled the sauce recipe part and of course added some chilies. Everyone went crazy!
I just insisted making this dish, but I added a few onions, carrots, and mushrooms. Boy, was it good! Thank you Mandy for sharing your recipes with everyone. If you’re still undecided if you can make Mandy’s recipes, stop wasting your time and just get to it. Super simple and as Mandy says, it’s better than take out.
I really enjoy your recipes! I appreciate that they’re concise and to the point. I also like that you make your videos all about the food not a lot of talking!
That looks so good. I really enjoy all of your videos. Very descriptive to the recipes really great. Thank you for taking the time to share your recipes.
I've made this several times for my family and they absolutely love it. Your tips on the broccoli are great. It stays very crunchy
I can't wait to try this. This has always been my favorite dish at a Chinese restaurant since I was in preschool.
Excellent! Love how you explain WHY you do things. Been cooking for 60 years; learned several things I did not know. Great job! I will be watching.
I finally have the ingredients for this dish. Gonna try it soon. Cant wait. You make it look so delicious.
I made this last night for the second time - I had some friends over and they LOVED it!!! Thanks so much!!! I very much enjoy your channel!
I cooked it earlier today and it was incredibly delicious!! 😍 I followed your steps exactly, so easy!
My 17 year old son was so happy. He loved it!
Thank you so much for investing your time to teaching us how to cook my favorite food... Chinese! ❤
Warm greetings from Colombia!
This is the best and easiest recipe I have tried and my new go-to. Thank you for making it so easy to cook and I love your little tips like what not to do - eg. cover the pot or your broccoli will lose it colour, use baking soda and why. The tips are what make the dish. Thank you and keep cooking - I am a huge fan.
You are an excellent teacher. I made your kon pao chicken and it was SO GOOD. Thank you for explaining each step so clearly. Can't wait to try thus recipe!
I just make her Kung Pao chicken an hour ago. Magnificent! And I made it! WOOT!
I think I've watched this 3 or 4 times and it always makes me hungry. This is one of my favorite dishes.
I made this yesterday and my husband couldn't stop talking about how delicious it was!! Thank you so much for your videos and recipes!!!
Can’t wait to try it!! Your crunchy chicken recipe was out of this world !!! Thank you for sharing n keep them coming!! U explain it sooooo nicely !!!!💕🌿✨💫🦋💕🌿✨🦋🙏🙏
Thank you, thank you, thank you! I love your videos and my family LOVES your recipes
I made this recipe tonight, and I must admit it was better by far than any take out! Thank you so much for another wonderful recipe. You are a joy to watch and a wealth of knowledge!
Your recipes are amazing, and easy to follow! I made the chow mein last night, and will try the beef with broccoli tonight. My picky husband says, "I could eat lots of this!" Thank you so much!
You make Beef and Broccoli look so good. I'm going to make this very soon. Your video's are the best.
Chris Smirl
I agree
... and she's so cute. Hard not to like her videos.
I really just thought you said you make my beef and broccoli look so good😂😂😂
But she really is though she's gorgeous 😍😍
I made this delicious dish today and the flavor--never had anything like that! So good!!! Thank you for sharing this recipe!
Love this channel's recipes! This will be my 3rd recipe from her that I do at home and I'm really excited because everything's been absolutely delicious!!!
Thanks for sharing! I had a bunch of beef and broccoli so searched your channel and found this recipe. Very delicious - my whole family loved it. The sauce even makes broccoli taste good! I was out of rice so served this with udon noodles.
Made this tonight with some noodles. Was soooo good. Thanks for the recipe! Can't wait to try another.

Hi... Is there any option to replace the use of wine. Because im a Muslim and wine or any alcohol is haram for us.
In this recipe, I only used a small amout of cooking wine, you can replace it with some milk or orange juice. If a recipe ask for a large amount of cooking wine, you can use the same amount of water but the dish will taste a bit different.
Thanks for this, I wasn't sure which cut of beef to use.
Hi!! I love your channel!! If I am making 1 lb of beef do I double the marinate? If I put 1/2 tsp of baking soda would that taste bad or should I increase everything else and keep the baking soda at 1/4 tsp?
Yes, double the marinate. !/2 tsp of baking soda should be fine for 1 lb of beef
Sweet perfection ,, your advice of not over boiling broccoli is spot on , the difference between sweet and bitter flavor . You really know your stuff sweetheart 💓 Bless you 🐦
I’m so glad I stumbled on to your videos. Dinner has not been the same ever since. My family and friends truly enjoy all the dishes I’ve made with your help. Love your videos so much! Keep up the awesome work!
I made this last night and it was soo yummy! everyone loved it! thanks for the recipe
Cracking good recipe thanks, made this yesterday very delicious. Never cooked Chinese food before so this has encouraged me to explore.
Just don’t try cooking it on the “barbie” it’ll slide through the grates matey.
I just watched a number of videos on how to cook Beef Broccoli, and your recipe is my winner!

Hearing the sound of broccoli while she chews them. Undoubtedly crunchy. Great video thanks. :) 👍🏻
I really like the way you videos are so easy to follow and to the point

John Smith agree😊
I’ll second that!
Fourth ...
John Smith fifth😄

This looks awesome and easy. I have all of the ingredients for this, and I'll be trying it in the next few days.
I am sitting at my table now enjoying this recipe, I must say it is so much better than take-out. My family also enjoyed it. You are great.
Mandy you have become my new go to chef. I cook your recipes 2 or 3 times a week. The velveting technique is the best thing I have ever learnt. Everything you cook is amazing and you explain how to do it so well. Who needs takeout? Not us ;) You,re a star :)
I just cooked according to your recipe: but added carrots, cauliflower, and zucchini, and ginger to garlic. It was so easy and so delicious!
thank you very much for really good easy to follow recipes.
Evgenia Pshenichnova Hi did you boiled all vegetables as well? How long?
Why do people get recipies, and then are so proud that they did it different?
Doesn't sound like you make a Beef Broccoli dish to me.
So happy to run across your channel! Broccoli beef is my favorite!
Made this today. Triple my ingredients and it came out so good!!! Thank you for sharing this recipe. My family loved it! 💓
I love how clearly you explain everything. I’m loving your channel! 👍
Thank you so much for your recipe videos...and you include the ingredients ..very very very few videos do what you do..I just copy and print and add them to my recipes ...I just bought a real authentic Wok from China, no non stick, just carbon steel 16 inch Wok...
Thanks again young lady....Canada
Yum! I always end up adding red bell paper and Bella mushrooms because I love the flavor of bell peppers and love mushrooms.
I add red bell too, adds color & I love it. More nutrition!
I made this tonight with some additional vegetables (carrots, onions, bell peppers) and it was amazing! I cooked the carrots and onions with the broccoli, and added the peppers straight to the wok. The family loved it!
You are so adorable- a patient, capable teacher, whose positive encouragement is refreshing. I loved watching how excited you are to plate and eat your own creation. Thank you so much for the great tips. I need to get a better wok and strainer, like yours...so nice that you added some resources for that.
I did this recepy just few min ago and i have to say this is best one i ever tried . Thanks !!!
This is a very good recipe.
Just had it myself, substituting broccoli for a pepper and mushrooms.
Great tutorial 👍
mmm yumm0
Just made this for the first time for me and lady partner, and it came out so well! The beef was really tender after marinading. Got to do this again soon. Many thanks for a super recipe and such a clear and easy to follow demonstration. Eric in Manchester England.
I have made this about 8 times and I love it. The best recipe for this dish so far.
Hi Mindy, love your recipe, I made it for dinner it was so good! Thank you!
Watching from the Philippines. I love Chinese foods. 🇵🇭😊❤
This is the best beef & broccoli I've ever had. Your recipes are amazing. Thank you.
I made this at home last week, and it was so good. Love your recipes and love watching you cook. I’m learning so much. 😋
Wow! The magic of "Baking Soda" to tenderized the beef. Thank you!
Thank you for sharing this simple but yet delicious meal i made this an it was better then any takeout i have eaten. You are truly blessed an gifted been watching alot of ypu videos it amazes me that ppl dislike i dont understand it but i will continue to watch an make your recipe's 😊😊😊

Wow I saw the expanded recepie! That was awesome. I have never seen that before! Thank you. I want to try it out soon!
I made this but didn't have a wok. I use only cast iron pans and my largest fry pan worked perfectly!! Love this recipe and it truly is "Better than take-out"!!!

SUP:
Just to let you know, we made this recipe last night. Very good taste, and the trick with the cooling of the Brocolli was brilliant. However, I tell you a few things we learned. (1) You really have to cut the meat very thin. I was surprised, VERY SURPRISED. Man, I cut it a little thicker, and it expands; maybe, even expanding greatly. What I would have put into a stew, didn't work. I need to cut them smaller in future, very thin like you said. (2) We doubled sauce recipe, because we like to have sauce. But, it was thinner than we wanted. (3) On thin sauce, we doubled the ingredients for the sauce, and I told wife to put 4 tsp of cornstarch and ... you said 2-3 tbsp of water ... so I put 6 tbsp (to double). Well, I think I should have also increased the cornstarch or stayed with 4 tsp of water. It was runny but not bad taste at all -- just too thin. Honestly, I love recipe so much that I will make again and try again. (4) I learned about Brocolli. We went to nice Chinese place by us (Ranch 99 in Houston), and got these big heads of Brocolli. So, I cut it down, but I only like the florets. However, I tried an experiment. I did florets like you said, then I went back and REALLY CHOPPED UP the hard stems. I put them in the boiling water for a little longer, and then used them too. AND WOW, they were perfect. So, now, I know how to have ZERO WASTE. I can use 100% of the brocolli head, which I've never done before. I just ate the hard stuff with ranch dip later-on. Yet, now, I feel so much better.
We haven't eaten it yet for lunch. We are leaving it overnight to see if it gets more thicker and saucy. I can't wait to surprise my Mom (like I said who is disabled and can't get out much), but we have to get out today to go to hospital, have some bloodtests, and do normal checkups. It's her annual checkups now.
Anyway, I will give you an update. But, thank you for sharing with us. If you were a friend and knew you, I'd give you a big hug for teaching us this. I will use this forever to eat lower-cost food at home. Also, I can just THROW SHIT TOGETHER at end of week with this appraoch.
I plan to do the Pepper Steak next, because I like that. I bought extra meat to do that this weekend too. So, I'll update you on that too. Also, remember me, because I will be doing your recipes over time and giving you feedback. Please, always, stay a UA-camr, because you will easily become REAL BIG doing this. Also, we plan to support you in any way we can.
Thanks, Poe ...
Hey there! I doubled my recipe as well. I went with four and a half tablespoons of water. The sauce starts thin but thickens up a lot as it cooks the starch. Cook it and make sure it's thick enough before you add the broccoli and meat. You can always thicken a sauce by evaporating the water out of it. Sauces also get thicker as they cool.
@@EvaAdorable Very good advice. Thank you for letting me know. Yes, we are still trying to learn how to cook a lot of the Chinese foods that we liked. @EEvvee, during the Pandemic, we had to cook at home, so we got better at it. Now, we really don't care to go out much, especially since Virus is still spreading in Houston, Texas, so we are just staying home, cooking ourselves, and not taking the risk. It feels better to save money and to be in control of your food.
@@EvaAdorable Also, EEv, I'm gonna print out what you said and staple it to our recipe. My wife is the expert on stuff like this, not me. So, I'll make sure she sees that when we cook it next time.
@@poelemic3642 Cool! I'm really glad it helped! Cooking can be a really fun and rewarding experience. You and your wife cook together? That's really adorable. I don't think my husband even knows how to make eggs... haha!
Thank-you for sharing your recipes, I've been cooking Chinese food once a week since I found you on UA-cam and my kids love it.
This is one of my favourite dishes, it’s so delicious and very fast to make.
Thanks to you young Lady.
Another amazing video and recipe!
Thanks so much for your recopies. I love Chinese food and I made the beef and broccoli recipe, it was gorgeous and sooo much better than the takeaway and cost far less but much fresher and delicious. I used a rump steak and made sure i got one that I could cut very thin against the grain of the meat. This was a fantastic tip. The only extra thing I added was a stork of lemongrass which took the dish to another level. I made some egg fried rice to go with it too.
I subscribed and I plan to try many more of your recopies so thank you very much. Bye for now.

Thanks for sharing me how your food comes out. I am glad you enjoyed it. =)

This is absolutely AMAZING!! We love your channel and we are so thankful you share your wonderful recipes. Thank you so much
You are amazing!! I love trying new recipes. Every few days I try a new recipe. Last week I wanted to make Fried Wontons and I saw your recipe for it, and OMG, IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT..Definitely was better than I’ve ever had. Today I decided to make Beef with Broccoli and AGAIN IT CAME OUT AWESOME. With everything going on in this world, I definitely missed my local Chinese Restaurant, but now I don’t have to order Chinese anymore, you got me buying all these Chinese Ingredients you have mentioned. Thank you so much!!! I WISH I HAD FOUND YOU SOONER..
I made this and wow!! The best I’ve ever had. The only thing I did differently was I added a small amount of brown sugar to the beef and sesame oil and omg the best I’ve ever had. I also used braggs instead of soy sauce. Also added fresh finger and scallions to the stir fry
Fresh finger is essential.
This was delicious but better with sesame seed oil! Everyone loved it! Thank you!
I came looking for this comment. I love seame oil so I was wondering if anyone used it.
I have tried a few of you’re recipes and it’s absolutely delicious. My dad loves the beef and broccoli with chicken fried rice. It’s my favorite too. Thank you so much and God bless you!
Just made this evening and it turned out GREAT! Chuck was tender and broccoli still had its cruch. Thank you!!
Love your technique of tenderizing meat.Works great.ty
dont need to use baking soda if you use decent cut such as flap, ny steak or petite sirloin.
Cometa Vargas,
Ribeye,filet mignon,porterhouse..thank you but I think you missed my point.She has a nice tasty cheap method for cheap cuts of meat.I"ll smoke a brisket for 8+/- hours that will melt in your mouth.I get bored of certain flavors and cooking methods and she I think you will agree is opening up a whole new world of flavours and techniques.
I agree, why spend extra money on choice cuts of meat? Unless you are wealthy, it makes no sense to use top quality cuts in a dish that's covered in sauce. The baking soda method works really well.
Psyop 6 well said
@Cometa, it's not about using "best" cuts of meat. The baking soda doesn't just tenderize it, it gives it a "velvety" texture that is used in dishes in almost every single Asian restaurant. Mongolian Beef is another recipe that this is technique commonly used in. It can be used on chicken and other meats as well.
I grill flap cuts all the time. Rubbing baking soda on it, letting it sit for about 5 mins then rinsing it off will produce an amazing cut of beef, a very velvety texture. This is useful when you do a lot of marinading and cut the meat into smaller bits after grilling.
Try it, you'll be surprised at the outcome. It's NOT merely about tenderizing it.

Cute doggy.
Just made this and it was amazing! Mine ended up with a lot more sauce but didn’t mind it at all. Thank you! I love your channel and looking forward to more recipes!
Thank you so much for teaching us your recipes and making it easy to follow!
This lady is a really great cook that makes chinese recipe look so easy to do
In fact, chinese cuisine is easy to cook !
Hi! I made this last night and it was AMAZING!! I served it on freshly graded cauliflower rice. Thanks so much for your wonder recipes, fantastic personality and passion for teaching!
Delicious! The most tender beef I have ever tasted. Thank you for your recipe!!!
You are so cuteee♥️♥️♥️ you reaction to adding it to the rice though😉😜😂😂😂♥️ love ittt
We are making this recipe right now, My wife is trying to find Chuck tenders, so far, no luck, so we might have to use New York strip.
I've used round steak very successfully. A tip, put it in the freezer for maybe 45 minutes to an hour before you slice it and it'll cut so easily. You can slice it very thin and evenly if it's just a little bit frozen. Same method works for any other meat you want to slice easily.
I made this last night for my daughters. We loved it! I really enjoy your videos and am looking forward to trying more. Thankyou!
I have made this twice now and both times turned out amazing. Thank you for sharing :)
With a handful of dry fried cashew nuts is nice too.
Would love to see recipe for egg rolls
She has one and it's great.
Me too, great idea!
I made this today for lunch. The beef was tender and amazing just like you said! I'll always marinate the beef like this from now on! Thank you.
I just made this and it turned out great!! Thank you so much for the recipe!
My new mantra: I feel like I need a bowl of rice
Would you please recommend a good brand/source of a wok?
ua-cam.com/video/-7zxhd2v-DY/v-deo.html
I made this and double the ingredients because I had more beef and it came out excellent, thank you.
Made this last night and it was PERFECT! I’m not even that crazy about broccoli but this was so good. Best stir-fry I ever made. Thank you.
Omg, looks delish. You seem not to gain weight, you eat lots of rice. Thanks!
I made this today and I'm upset I forgot the sugar. You didnt mention sugar in your video but it's in the description box. Did you use sugar?? (P.s. it was still delicious!)
Yes , sugar is the one that make your sauce little sweet.
I think she for got to put in the sugar and dark soy for coloring..lol
@@solo022667 thanks lol. I tried it both ways. It was delicious even without the sugar. I did remember to use the dark soy sauce for coloring lol. My family loved it so much they asked me to make it 2 nights in a row :)
@@angelnicole513 glad everything turned out well..
I stopped cooking at my house. I feel like I work at panda express even at home..lol
It's so good that they want me to put 18 hrs at the kitchen..hehe
you can use like double the sugar she uses
@@LNKSonUA-cam thanks!
We made this last night…we loved it. Simple ingredients and came out great! Thank you!!
Just made this tonight for first time... and it’s fantastic!
I had to remake and cook the sauce a second time cos I had the temp way too high the first time and ended up with a blackened goop, but the second time I cook the sauce at a med/low temp and it came out great!
It’s not easy getting good Chinese food in the Tulsa suburbs... so being able to cook this at home is awesome.
Thanks!
I wouls add diced gingerwith the garlic.. Also sliced carrots would add color to this dish. Also for the sauce 1 teaspoon of seseme oil.
2 tsp of cornstarch for the sauce is an error. 1/2 tsp is more than enough for less than 1 cup of sauce.
