Method
 

Preparation Steps
  1. In a small bowl, whisk together the vegetable broth, light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, sugar, and ground black pepper to create the sauce. Mix cornstarch with a few tablespoons of water to create the slurry. Set both aside.
  2. In a skillet, bring water to a gentle boil. Add broccoli and a pinch of salt, cover, and steam for about 1 minute until bright green and slightly tender. Transfer to a plate.
  3. Wipe out the skillet, add peanut oil, and heat over medium-high. Add sliced mushrooms, searing without stirring for about 1 minute. Continue sautéing for 2 to 3 minutes until brown and tender.
  4. Push mushrooms to the side and add minced garlic, fresh ginger, and dried chili peppers. Stir for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Return steamed broccoli to the skillet and mix with mushrooms and aromatics. Pour in the sauce and let it bubble for about 1 minute. Stir in the slurry, cooking for an additional minute until thickened.
  6. Remove from heat and transfer stir fry to a serving plate. Serve hot as a standalone meal or over rice or noodles.
