# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ For the sauce

01 - 180 ml low sodium soy sauce
02 - 120 ml oyster sauce
03 - 120 ml honey or brown sugar
04 - 30 ml rice vinegar
05 - 15 ml browning (optional, for color)

→ For the steak

06 - 450 g steak, such as flank steak or sirloin, sliced thin
07 - 45 ml soy sauce
08 - 15 ml cornstarch
09 - 15 ml rice wine vinegar
10 - 5 ml ground ginger

→ For the stir fry

11 - 30 ml sesame oil
12 - 40 g onions, diced
13 - 15 g garlic, diced
14 - 15 g ginger, diced
15 - 450 g broccoli florets
16 - 450 g noodles (such as spaghetti or lo mein noodles)

→ For the cornstarch slurry

17 - 15 ml cornstarch
18 - 15 ml cold water

# How to Prepare:

01 - Cook noodles according to package directions in salted boiling water. Drain well and set aside.
02 - In a bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, honey or brown sugar, rice vinegar, and browning if using. In a separate small bowl, combine cornstarch and cold water to form a smooth slurry. Gradually whisk the slurry into the sauce and set aside.
03 - In a large bowl, toss sliced steak with soy sauce, cornstarch, rice wine vinegar, and ground ginger until evenly coated.
04 - Heat sesame oil in a large wok over high heat. Sear beef in a single layer until browned and cooked to your preference, about 2–4 minutes. Transfer cooked beef to a plate and set aside.
05 - In the same wok, add diced onion, garlic, and ginger. Stir-fry for 2–3 minutes until aromatic and softened.
06 - Add broccoli florets and cooked noodles to the wok. Stir-fry over high heat, tossing frequently, until the broccoli turns bright green and tender-crisp.
07 - Pour the prepared sauce evenly over the stir fry while tossing to coat all ingredients thoroughly.
08 - Return the seared beef to the wok. Stir-fry all components together for 1–2 minutes until heated through and evenly glazed.
09 - Divide the noodles, beef, and vegetables among plates and serve immediately while hot.

# Extra Tips:

01 - For best texture, slice beef thinly against the grain and keep vegetables crisp-tender by avoiding overcooking.
