Please note that measurements are approximate.
First boil 3 cups of water for the rice. Add rice, cover and reduce to a simmer until
done. Meanwhile wash the broccoli and chop into bite size pieces, including the
stalk. Mince the garlic and set aside. Boil 2
cups of water and add the vegetable stock cube. Stir to dissolve and add the garlic, soy
sauce, ginger, red pepper flakes and sweetner. Dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of
cold water. Cook the broccoli over high heat in a large skillet for 2 minutes. Then add the garlic mixture. Let this simmer over medium high heat for 7-10 minutes depending on how crisp you like your
broccoli. Add the cornstarch mixture and stir to distribute it. Cook for 1-2 minutes more or until it thickens. If you like,
you can dissolve more cornstarch in cold water to make it even thicker. Place rice in bowls and top with broccoli and garlic sauce
mixture. Enjoy!
