On a plate, combine 2 tbsp cornstarch and salt; add beef and toss to coat. Heat oil in a large wok or deep skillet over medium heat. Add beef; stir fry until lightly browned and cooked through. Transfer to a bowl.
Add ½ cup broth to the same pan; add broccoli, cover and cook, tossing occasionally and sprinkling with 1 tbsp water if needed, until broccoli is crisp and tender. Add ginger and garlic. Stir fry for approx. 1 minute.
In a cup, stir together soy sauce, remaining ½ cup of broth, remaining ½ tbsp of cornstarch and water until blended, then stir into the pan. Reduce the heat and bring to a simmer; simmer until thickened for approx. 1 minute.
