Beef and Broccoli

 3/4 lb beef roast (top sirloin, or loin tip), cut in chunks or strips

1-1/4 Tbsp cornstarch (or arrowroot)

1-2 Tbsp sesame (or olive oil)

1/2 yellow onion, diced (or 2 Tbsp dried onion flakes)

1/2 cup low sodium beef bone broth

1/4 cup low sodium soy sauce

2 Tbsp dark brown sugar

2-3 cloves garlic, minced

1-2 tsp fresh ginger, minced

1/4-1/2 tsp black pepper, plus more to taste

1 1/2 cup broccoli crown florets, cut bite size pieces 

sesame seeds, for garnish

green onion tops, chopped, for garnish

Toss sliced meat with cornstarch and a little pepper in a bowl until coated.  Heat oil in large skillet over medium heat and fry each side (not touching each other) and transfer to clean plate when done.  Repeat with all pieces and add more oil if needed.  When steak is cooked and removed, add onions (if using fresh onions) and broccoli to skillet and stir-fry according to desired texture (add more oil if needed).  

Meanwhile, combine broth, (dried onion flakes if using), soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, and ginger in a bowl.  When broccoli and onions are done, add the sauce and meat. Mix until sauce thickens.  If the sauce is too thick, add more broth or soy sauce.  Serve warm over rice or cauliflower rice.
