United States-Style Hoisin Five-Spice Beef with Broccoli. 

Americanizing Asian ingredients and flavors to make a slow-cooker hoisin five-spice beef with broccoli is possible. A recipe for this: To make this recipe, thinly slice 1.5 to 2 pounds of beef (e.g. flank steak or bull chuck).

1 cup beef broth Hoisin sauce—1/2 cup Two tablespoons soy One tablespoon sesame oil 1 tbsp rice vinegar 1 Tbsp brown sugar 2 minced garlic cloves

1 tsp grated ginger 1 tsp Chinese five-spice 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional heat) 2 cups broccoli florets 2 tablespoons cornstarch (optional thickener) Sesame seeds and green onion slices for garnish For serving, cooked rice or noodles

Instructions: Mix beef broth, hoisin sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, rice vinegar, brown sugar, chopped garlic, grated ginger, Chinese five-spice powder, and crushed red pepper flakes in a basin. This makes the meat sauce tasty.

Pour the sauce over thinly sliced beef in the slow cooker to coat evenly. Cook the beef until soft and cooked through on low for 6–8 hours or high for 3–4 hours.

Stir the broccoli florets into the beef and sauce in the slow cooker 30 minutes before serving. Cooking the broccoli this way makes it delicate but crunchy. A slurry of cornstarch and water can be added to the slow cooker for a richer sauce. Heat for 15-20 minutes on high to thicken the sauce.

Cook the meat and broccoli to your preference and thicken the sauce (if desired). Serve hot over rice or noodles.

Top with sesame seeds and green onions for taste and appearance. This American-style slow cooker hoisin five-spice beef with broccoli combines Asian flavors with American preferences and ease. The cozy and savory dish is excellent for a weeknight dinner or informal party.
