Preparation
Step 1
Combine beef, 2 tablespoons soy sauce, Sherry, garlic, ginger and sesame oil in medium bowl. Cover; chill 1 to 2 hours.
Step 2
Soak mushrooms in 2 cups hot water until soft. Drain mushrooms, reserving liquid. Cut mushroom caps into quarters; discard stems. Combine broccoli and mushroom liquid in shallow medium saucepan. Cover and boil until broccoli is just crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Using slotted spoon, transfer broccoli to plate. Boil liquid until reduced to 3 tablespoons, about 4 minutes. Pour liquid into small bowl and cool completely. Whisk cornstarch into mushroom liquid. Set aside.
Step 3
Heat vegetable oil in heavy large nonstick wok or skillet over high heat until almost smoking. Add mushrooms and stir-fry 1 minute. Add beef mixture and green onions and stir-fry until beef is almost cooked through, about 3 minutes. Toss in broccoli and stir until broccoli is heated through, about 1 minute. Pour in cornstarch mixture and stir until liquid boils and thickens, about 30 seconds. Transfer to platter. Season generously with pepper and serve, passing soy sauce separately.
