1 teaspoon garlic powder

1 teaspoon salt

2 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons cornstarch

1.1 lbs. beef tenderloin, cut into 3 cm cubes

1 bunch broccoli

¾ cup cooking oil

2/3 cup chicken stock

2 tablespoons Soy sauce

2 dashes Tabasco sauce

2 eggs

Method: Make a mixture out of the garlic powder, salt, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, and eggs. Stir in the beef, coating thoroughly. Marinate 5 minutes.

Separate the broccoli into florets, leaving sections of stalk attached. Cook 3 minutes in lightly salted, boiling water. Remove and keep hot.

Heat a wok or skillet and add the cooking oil. When oil is hot, brown the beef, stirring constantly. Drain off the cooking oil. Add chicken stock, Soy sauce, and Tabasco sauce and return to heat. Dissolve the remaining cornstarch in 1 tablespoon cold water and stir into the beef mixture to form a sauce. Immediately place the beef in the center of a serving platter and surround with broccoli. Serve hot. Serves 4
