I am giving this 3 stars. I agree with reviewer MikeT that the flour/liquid ratio doesn't work. Less flour more liquid or you will end up with glue. Also, next time, I will triple up on the ginger and the rest of the spices because this was too bland. I used brown sugar and then added additional white sugar for sweetness, I did not add ground red pepper but only because I have to stay away from spicey foods. If not, I would have gladly added that bit of hot in the mix. I like this recipe because you can add anything you want, play with it and it will still be good. The only thing I think is wrong with this recipe is that there is way too much flour which gave it a floury undertaste. I would make rue next time, using corn starch rather than flour and slowly add this into the liquids just for thickening and so that the flour does not overpower the spices. Otherwise, this is a good, healthy recipe.

Recipe tastes very similar to what you get in the restaurant. The sauce could use a little more flavor though. I added water chestnuts, onions, and bean sprouts for a little variety and it was great.

My boyfriend and I love this recipe!! We've also made it with chicken & chicken stock instead of beef + beef broth and have added some carrots for color and it's amazing! Love the ginger so much we tend to add extra. Next time we'll add some water chestnuts for extra crunch! Delicious. Absolutely amazing! Thanks!!

I recommend putting the broccoli in after the sauce thickens so that it cooks no more that 5 minutes or the broccoli gets a little overcooked. Mine got a little too soggy for my taste. I like a little crunch.

I would even give it more stars if I could. I try a new recipe from this site at least once per week. This is the first time I have commented. This was incredible! I took the advice of others and added some red pepper, more broth as well as red and green peppers and onion. My husband and I both agree this was better than anything we have eaten in a restaurant! After each new recipe we decide if it is one to keep or to throw away. This is absolutely a keeper. He wanted to know if we could have it weekly! Go try this! It is quick and easy and oh so delicious!

This dish was EXCELLENT! I added extra broccoli, and a bit more ginger than the recipe calls for. I've never used fresh ginger root before, so it was interesting to see how it changed the flavour. Leftovers are even better cold!! Will definitely be making this again.

Four stars "as is," but better with a few alterations. I found the sauce thickened instantly once I added it to my wok, which would have made the sauce evaporate before my meat and broccoli were fully cooked. I added a few generous splashes of soy sauce to compensate - perfect consistency! I also thought the ginger on its own was too overpowering. Perhaps shredded or powdered would work better than thin pieces. Overall, very quick and tasty with white rice!

I've made this both with a bag of frozen broccoli florets and with chopped up fresh broccoli and they both work out great depending on what you're aiming for. Using frozen broccoli helps make this dish ready quick. Using fresh I personally believe lends to better flavor as the fresh broccoli cools slower than frozen and ads its own essence to the dish!

This was good. The sugar was a little too much so I had to add more soy and more stock, plus red pepper, black pepper, garlic powerder, and salt. I served over rice cooked in soy sauce and the family really liked it.

I have a friend who gives me a lot of broccoli he's grown organically. This was a great way of using some of it up. Instead of the sugar I used 1T of honey and I had no fresh ginger to hand so used jarred chopped ginger. My husband loved this served with noodles. Thanks Sal.

This was pretty good and satisfied our craving for chinese without being uber expensive. I doubled the sauce and the amount of broccoli since I am a HUGE BROCCOLI LOVER. We put it over noodles and it got gobbled up rather quickly. I would still like to know how to tweak it to taste more like the kind you get at the restaurant. I guess I am giving this 4 stars because that is what I expected- restaurant style. But this is still good none the less.

This was ok, not quite like in the restaurant, I would defiantly steam the broccoli and add it at the end of cooking, the sauce was missing something, but hey it was less expensive to make at home than take-out!
