Homemade beef and broccoli is way better than takeout. If you don’t have oyster sauce, you can replace it with hoisin and use a total of 1/4 cup of hoisin. Or vice versa if you don’t have hoisin and only have oyster sauce.

Ingredients
1pound(454g)beef sirloin, top round, chuck steak or flank steak, sliced thin for a tender bite
1pound(454g)broccoli florets, cut into bite-sized pieces
2Tablespoons(30ml)vegetable oil, for coating beef and broccoli
In a bowl, combine the beef and broccoli and coat with the 2 Tablespoons of vegetable oil.
Spread the beef and broccoli into an even layer in air fryer basket/tray. Cook in batches if needed, don’t overcrowd the basket.
Air Fry at 380°F/193°C for 10 minutes, then shake and flip the beef and broccoli.
Air Fry at 380°F/193°C for another 5 minutes. Shake and flip the beef and broccoli and check for doneness. If needed continue to Air Fry for another 1-5 minutes, or until cooked to your preferred doneness for the beef and broccoli.
While the beef and broccoli is cooking, make the sauce. Whisk together the water and cornstarch until smooth. Whisk in the soy sauce, brown sugar, oyster sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and sesame seed oil.
Heat a saucepan over medium-high heat. Heat the 1 Tablespoon of vegetable oil then add the onion, garlic and ginger. Stirring regularly, cook until soft and lightly browned, about 2 minutes.
Add the sauce and bring to a simmer. Simmer for 2-3 minutes or until it thickens to coat the back of a spoon. Remove from heat.
After the beef and broccoli has finished cooking, combine the beef and broccoli with the sauce. Serve warm over rice, noodles, or any way you prefer.
