8 Serving

1 pound top sirloin steak or petite sirloin steak, trimmed of all fat and sliced into thin strips across the grain
2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh ginger, finely chopped
2 tablespoons sherry
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons soy sauce

7 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided
3 eggs, beaten or blended until smooth

1 large onion, chopped
14 ounces coleslaw mix

1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/2 cup water
1 teaspoon sugar
1 teaspoon sesame oil

1 pound broccoli florets
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup water

6 cups cold cooked rice

  1. Mix the steak strips with the garlic, ginger, sherry, cornstarch, and soy sauce. Let stand for 15-20 minutes.
  2. Heat a wok to high heat and add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil. Add the eggs and fry like an omelet; remove from the wok to a cutting board and cut into small squares.
  3. Add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the wok and add the marinated steak and stir fry until it is just cooked through; transfer to a bowl.
  4. Add another tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok and add the onions. Stir-fry until they begin to soften and add the coleslaw mix. Stir over high heat until the cabbage is wilted.
  5. Mix the oyster sauce, water, sugar, and sesame oil. Pour over the cabbage mixture and stir-fry until most of the moisture is absorbed. Transfer the vegetable mixture to the bowl with the beef mixture.
  6. Add the broccoli and salt to the wok and add the cup of water; bring to a boil and cook just until crisp-tender. Remove the broccoli with a slotted spoon and set aside; drain any water from the wok.
  7. Add the remaining four tablespoons of vegetable oil and toss the rice in the oil to coat. Stir-fry the rice until it begins to smell good and starts to crisp.
  8. Add the beef and vegetable mixture, broccoli, and eggs. Stir fry until all of the ingredients are heated through. Serve.
