Beef and Broccoli (without the Beef)

I made the recipe called "Beef with Broccoli" from Our Best Bites and the kids didn't like the way the beef turned out, but they loved the vegetables with it and have asked me to make them again so I'm just going to record the vegetable part of the recipe.

1 T oil
1/2 cup water
1 T cornstarch
1 t ground ginger--I just used the powdered kind
2 T brown sugar
1/3 cup soy sauce
12 ounces broccoli florets broken into bite size pieces (about 4 cups)
2 carrots cut into small pieces ( I used about 1-1 1/2 cup baby carrots)

In separate bowl whisk together water, soy sauce, cornstarch, ginger, and brown sugar.  Set aside. Heat 1T oil in pan when hot and broccoli and carrots. Stir fry broccoli and carrots for 4-5 minutes until tender-crisp.  Add the sauce and cook for about 1 minute until the sauce thickens.  Serve over white rice.  (The next time I made this I doubled the recipe to have leftovers.)
