Equipment

  • Slow Cooker
  • Measuring Cups
  • Small Bowl

Ingredients
  

  • 1 ½ pounds beef stew meat
  • 4 cups frozen broccoli florets
  • 1 cup beef broth
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon minced garlic
  • 2 tablespoons cornstarch
  • Cooked rice, for serving
  • Sesame seeds, for garnish

Instructions
 

  • Place the beef stew meat in the slow cooker. Add the beef broth, soy sauce, brown sugar, and minced garlic. Stir to combine the sauce ingredients with the meat.
  • Cover and cook on low for 6 hours. The beef should become tender during this time.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with 2 tablespoons of the cooking liquid from the slow cooker until smooth. Stir this mixture back into the pot.
  • Add the frozen broccoli florets. Cover and cook on high for 30 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but still bright.
  • Serve the beef and broccoli over cooked rice. Sprinkle sesame seeds on top before eating.

Notes

Add the broccoli only in the final half hour so it stays firm instead of turning soft. Leftovers store well in the fridge for up to three days and reheat easily in the microwave with a splash of broth to loosen the sauce.
