Beef and Broccoli Stir Fry

1/2 pound boneless tender beef steak
2 tablespoons cornstarch, divided
4 tablespoons soy sauce, divided

2 teaspoons minced fresh ginger root
1 clove garlic, minced
1 pound fresh broccoli, trimmed

Cut beef across grain into thin slices. Combine 1 tablespoon each cornstarch and soy sauce with sugar, ginger and garlic; stir in beef. Let stand 15 minutes.

Meanwhile, remove florets from broccoli; if large, cut in half lengthwise. Cut stalks crosswise into 1/8-inch slices. Combine remaining cornstarch and soy sauce with 1 cup water. Set aside.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in wok or large skillet over high heat. Add meat and stir fry 1 minute; remove. Heat remaining oil in same wok. Add broccoli, onion and carrot; stir fry 4 minutes, or until vegetables are tender-crisp. Stir in meat and soy sauce mixture; bring to boil. Cook and stir until sauce thickens.
