Ingredients

• Prawns (1 pound, peeled and deveined)
• Broccoli (2 cups, cut into florets)
• Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
• Garlic (3 cloves, minced)
• Ginger (1 tablespoon, grated)
• Soy sauce (3 tablespoons)
• Oyster sauce (2 tablespoons)
• Sesame oil (1 tablespoon)
• Cornstarch (1 tablespoon)
• Water (1/4 cup)
• Salt (to taste)

Instructions

1. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and water until smooth to create a flavorful sauce. Set aside.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
3. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan, stir frying for about 1 minute until they become fragrant and golden.
4. Introduce the prawns to the pan, cooking until they turn pink and opaque, approximately 3-4 minutes. Remove the prawns from the pan and set aside.
5. In the same pan, add the broccoli florets and stir fry for 2-3 minutes until they are crisp-tender and vibrant in color.
6. Return the cooked prawns to the pan and pour the prepared sauce over the prawns and broccoli.
7. Continue to stir fry for an additional 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the prawns and broccoli.
8. Season with salt and black pepper to taste, adjusting as needed.
9. Serve the prawn and broccoli stir fry hot, ideally accompanied by steamed rice or noodles for a satisfying meal.
