  • 2 cups vegetable broth
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup soy sauce
  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 1/2 tsp red pepper flakes

Bring the vegetable broth to a boil. Add the garlic, soy sauce, ginger, red pepper and sugar, stirring to combine well.

In a large skillet, sautee the broccoli in olive oil until broccoli is just barely tender. Add the vegetable broth mixture to the broccoli. Add the cornstarch, stirring well to avoid any clumps.
