Chinese Beef and Broccoli
Recipe video above. Faster than take out, healthier and tastier! This is a Beef and Broccoli from an actual Chinese restaurant recipe, from Woks of Life which is run by a Chinese American family who used to run Chinese restaurants. My "go to" resource for Chinese takeout recipes! TOP TIP - If using economical beef, consider tenderising it the Chinese way ("velveting", simple, highly effective!)
