January 8th: Beef & Broccoli Stir-fry

My mom received a cookbook for Christmas this year: Best Recipes Ever (from the combined forces of CBC and Canadian Living). When I was home post-Christmas, I spent a few hours flipping through this cookbook and identifying recipes to make. Conveniently, they are online! They appear to be basic recipes that won't leave me frustrated and just might be delicious. Tonight I made the first one: Beef & Broccoli Stir-fry. This recipe comes together in about 10 minutes, so get everything prepped in advance and you are good to go. It was, as hoped, simple and tasty. I recommend cutting up the broccoli a bit, as some of the bigger pieces in my stir-fry were still raw-hard. Otherwise, yum. I also used ginger purée rather than fresh gingerroot, so reduced the amount from 1 tbsp to 1 tsp. Perfect. Served with mushroom fried rice.
