Ingredients

Scale

Meat

  • 1 lb beef sirloin, thinly sliced

Vegetables

  • 2 cups broccoli florets
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced

Sauce

  • 1/2 cup soy sauce
  • 1/4 cup oyster sauce
  • 1/4 cup beef broth
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar

Thickener

  • 1 tbsp cornstarch
  • 2 tbsp water (for dissolving cornstarch)

Instructions

  1. Combine Ingredients: Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin, minced garlic, soy sauce, oyster sauce, beef broth, and brown sugar into the crockpot. Stir gently to distribute the ingredients evenly.
  2. Slow Cook Beef: Cover and cook on low heat for 4 to 5 hours until the beef is tender and infused with the flavorful sauce.
  3. Prepare Thickener: About 30 minutes before serving, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water to create a slurry.
  4. Thicken Sauce: Stir the cornstarch slurry into the crockpot sauce to thicken it. Mix well to combine and allow it to cook for a few minutes.
  5. Add Broccoli: Add the broccoli florets into the crockpot, stirring gently to coat them in the sauce.
  6. Cook Broccoli: Continue cooking for another 20 to 30 minutes until the broccoli is tender but still bright green and crisp-tender.
  7. Serve: Once the beef is tender and broccoli cooked to your liking, serve hot over steamed rice or your choice of side.

Notes

  • For more tenderness, use beef chuck or brisket instead of sirloin and increase cooking time slightly.
  • You can substitute beef broth with water and a beef bouillon cube if preferred.
  • Adjust the brown sugar amount to taste for a sweeter or less sweet sauce.
  • If you like thicker sauce, increase cornstarch to 1.5 tablespoons.
  • For gluten-free version, use gluten-free soy sauce and oyster sauce.
