Ingredients
Method
- Start by washing the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Then, in a saucepan, add rice with 2 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is cooked and water is absorbed.
- While the rice is cooking, in a small bowl, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, grated ginger, minced garlic, and cornstarch. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
- Slice the beef into thin strips against the grain.
- In a skillet or wok, heat the sesame oil over medium-high heat.
- Add the beef strips, seasoning them with freshly ground black pepper. Sauté until browned but not fully cooked.
- Pour the previously prepared sauce over the beef.
- Reduce the heat to medium and let it simmer until the sauce thickens.
- Add the broccoli florets, stirring them into the beef and sauce. Cook for another 5-6 minutes, or until the broccoli is tender but retains its vibrant green color.
- Once the rice is done, fluff it with a fork.
- Serve the Teriyaki beef over the fluffy jasmine rice. Garnish with sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
Notes
1. Opt for low-sodium soy sauce to control your salt intake.
2. For a spicier kick, you can add a teaspoon of chili flakes or sriracha to the sauce.
3. Always slice beef against the grain for maximum tenderness.
4. Freshly ground black pepper has a much more vibrant flavor than pre-ground pepper. Consider investing in a pepper mill!
