Ingredients
- 1 ½ Pounds Vegan Beef Strips Use your favorite plant-based beef alternative, thinly sliced, I use MayWah Beef Slices
- 1 Can vegetable consommé for that deep, savory flavor
- ½ Cup vegan oyster sauce who says you can’t enjoy the umami richness in a vegan way
- 2 Tbsp cornstarch to give our sauce that lovely, glossy finish
- 16 Ounzes frozen broccoli florets or go fresh with 1 head of broccoli – just the florets
- 1 Tbsp Sesame A sprinkle of sesame seeds for that final, toasty touch
Instructions
- Crock Pot Magic: Place the vegan beef strips in your trusty crock pot or slow cooker.
- Layer the Flavors: Gently pour the vegetable consommé and vegan oyster sauce over the beef. Let these flavors mingle and get to know each other.
- Low and Slow: Cover and set your crock pot to low heat. Let it do its thing for about 6 hours. If you’re short on time, a high setting for 3 hours works wonders too.
- Cornstarch Tango: After the cooking time, mix cornstarch with a small amount of water until smooth. This is our thickening wizard! Stir it into the beef and watch the sauce transform.
- Broccoli’s Grand Entrance: Add the broccoli florets to the mix. They’re the green stars of this show.
- Final Countdown: Continue cooking on high for another 15 minutes. This is when everything comes together in perfect harmony.
