Ingredients

  • lb flank steak or stewing beef sliced thin
  • 1 medium onion diced
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • ½ cup beef stock
  • ¼ cup soy-free stir-fry style sauce or Worcestershire-based substitute
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cornflour
  • 10 oz broccoli florets

Optional for serving:

  • Cooked rice or noodles
  • Sesame seeds

Instructions

  • Add the sliced beef, diced onion, garlic, beef stock, sauce, and brown sugar to the slow cooker.
  • Give everything a gentle stir to combine.
  • Cover and cook on LOW for 5–6 hours, until the beef is tender.
  • In a small bowl, mix the cornflour with 2 tablespoons of cold water to create a slurry. Stir it into the slow cooker to thicken the sauce.
  • Add the broccoli florets during the final 30 minutes of cooking. Cover and continue cooking until the broccoli is tender but still bright and vibrant.
  • Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed.
  • Serve hot over rice or noodles and spoon plenty of that glossy sauce over the top.
