Cut the beef against the grain and pound it to tenderize.

Add 1 teaspoon of baking soda for every kilo of beef to tenderize it further.

Season the beef with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and mix well.

Coat the beef in cornstarch to create a nice outer layer that absorbs oil while sautéing.

Set the beef aside after mixing in black pepper if desired.

Blanch the broccoli in a pot of boiling water for 30 seconds to keep it vibrant green.

Transfer the blanched broccoli to ice-cold water to stop the cooking process.

Prepare the sauce by mixing chicken stock, water, soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and cornstarch until dissolved.

Toast garlic in oil to infuse flavor, then set aside for topping.

Cook the beef in the garlic-infused oil until nicely browned.

Add the prepared sauce to the beef and mix well.

Finish with black pepper and a drizzle of sesame oil for aroma.

Add the broccoli to the beef and toss to combine and warm up the vegetables.

Plate the dish and top with fried garlic before serving.
