I found this recipe to be rather bland. I ended up adding a few things to add more flavor. I am giving it four stars because my children loved it.

This dish started out pretty bland and I had to add to much to make the flavor improve. I'd look for another recipe before making this again. sorry

Hah, too funny! I didn't have any beef broth, so I used beef barley soup and just strained out the vegies and barley -and it worked fine! I followed other suggestions of doubling the broth, adding corn starch instead of flour, using more garlic and ginger (on both, much more than two times), and more soy sauce and added red pepper chili flakes. It might have been because I was using the beef soup, but I really used lots of the garlic and chili flakes. As others suggested, I cooked sliced onion with the beef, and took it out of the pan to go with the next step of broccoli and broth, then adding the beef back. With the changes, it was awesome!

I like this recipe okay, but even though I used slightly more garlic and ginger than directed and added salt and pepper to the meat, it came out bland. Sadly, my family aren't as gung-ho about Chinese food as I am and no one other than me liked it enough for me to try and perfect it. I won't be making this again.

i made this last night with all of the ingridients. the only thing i did was rup a little evoo on my steak before cutting into pieces and rubbed s&p on them. i also cooked the garlic right in with the steak as soon as it hit the pan. everything else to a tee! while not completley authentic, pretty good for us!

Very good if you double the amount of beef broth.

This is a five star if you add 1/2 tsp of red pepper. It needed a little kick to it. My husband added a little extra red pepper to his plate. My picky four year old asked if I could make it again. Great recipe. Thanks.

Very good, but a little too sweet for my tastes (and I only used half the sugar). Still, I will make this again with a few changes.

I didn't have a lot of broccoli left, so I added 1/2 of an onion, 1/2 of a green pepper and 1 portobello mushroom ... this was fantastic! We like things spicy so I put some crushed red pepper flakes in it at the end to give it some zip ... will definitely be making this again ... quick and easy, very tasty!

This came out great, my family enjoyed it a lot. I added extra garlic and ginger into it though because other reviews had stated that the recipe needed it. It came out great!! Will use this recipe again and again!!

This was tasty and my boyfriend and brother both really enjoyed it. I did use more spice than was called for. I also had trouble getting the sauce to thicken up. Eventually I made a cornstarch slurry and stirred that in and it thickened up nicely. Tasty recipe, thanks.

Wow, this is better than all the takeout beef with broccoli I've had. I doubled the sauce and served it over rice. I used powered ginger because I didnt want to waste a full root. Sauted some onions with the broccoli, then added the sauce, then the sirloin which I par cooked so it wouldnt get over done. Not chewy at all! Delicious!

Really Good! Kids loved it and so did I. Doubled the sauce and used cornstartch like the other reviews. I will use a more tender beef next time as the round steak was really chewy. The five stars is for the sauce, it actually taste better then most I had in restaurants.

I did this recipe last night and as suggested by other reviewers I doubled up on the garlic and ginger. I also added white sliced onions and red chili peppers (chile de arbol) it gave it an extra spice. Served over rice. I will do this recipe again for sure. My husband and I really liked it.
