A host of ingredients, including ginger, soy sauce, brown sugar and rice vinegar, add to the sweet and savory flavor of this stir-fry. Cut large broccoli florets in half or into thirds so they match the size of smaller florets. It's important to make sure that the pan heats for a few minutes before adding the oil. Once you put the food into the pan, you need to constantly keep it moving in order to prevent burning. Make sure the food is cut into bite-sized pieces so that they will cook quickly. And cook in small batches, if needed, to avoid overcrowding the pan.
