  4. Steam broccoli crowns for 8-9 minutes until just tender.

Notes
For a beef version of this dish, you will need 1 lb flank steak (thinly sliced), about ¼ cup cornstarch in a zipper bag, and vegetable oil to fry it in.

Add the steak slices to the bag and shake to fully coat. Allow to remain in the corn starch until you are ready to fry them. Fry for a couple of minutes until brown, stirring to cook evenly. Drain on paper towels.
