Ingredients:

Method:

1. Cut the meat into slivers.
2. Steam or lightly boil the whole broccoli head in a little water until it is just cooked. It should still be quite crisp and perfectly green. Don't overcook it otherwise you land up with bitter yellowy broccoli. Refresh the broccoli in cold water to stop it cooking further. Break into florets.
3. Fry the bell pepper until it is just soft.
4. Add the mushrooms and fry for two minutes. Do this at a high heat so that they cook quickly and don't lose their shape.
5. Add the meat and fry until it is just cooked. You may like it slightly pink in the middle, or you can cook it a little longer so that it is well-done.
6. Add the soy sauce and the broccoli florets. Cook for a minute.
7. Serve with rice.
8. As an option, you could sprinkle toasted cashew nuts or sunflower seeds over the top.
