Vegan ‘Beef’ & Broccoli Stir-fry

1: Add the TVP slices into a bowl and pour over boiling water to cover. Set aside to reconstitute.

2: Combine the cornstarch, water, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, brown sugar, Chinese five spice, and black pepper into a small bowl. Whisk well.

3: Heat half the oil in a large frypan or wok over medium heat. Add in the broccoli and sauté for 2 minutes until lightly charred. Add in 2 tbsp of water and cook until the water has evaporated and broccoli is slightly tender.

4: Remove the broccoli from the pan and set aside.

5: Heat the remaining oil in the pan over medium heat. Add in the ginger and garlic and fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.

6: Drain the TVP and squeeze out any excess liquid then add it to the pan. Turn heat up to high and fry for 2 minutes until dried out and lightly charred.

7: Pour in the sauce and add the broccoli back in. Toss well and cook for 1 minute until the sauce has thickened.

8: Garnish with sesame seeds and serve immediately with rice.
