You can easily adjust the ingredients in this one-dish favourite: Add more ginger for extra kick, or replace beef with chicken. Enjoy!
Ingredients
300 to 375 g strip loin steak
1 head broccoli
2 portobello mushrooms
2 yellow bell peppers
1/3 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup sherry
1 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp cornstarch
2 tbsp grated fresh ginger, or 1 tsp bottled ginger
3 garlic cloves, minced, or 1 tsp bottled garlic
1 tsp dark sesame oil
1/2 cup chopped cilantro, mint or basil, optional
Instructions
Discard any excess fat from steak, and cut meat into thin bite-sized strips. Slice broccoli florets from stalks. Cut florets into pieces; peel stalks, then slice into thin rounds. Cut and discard stem from each mushroom, and thickly slice caps. Slice peppers into thin strips. In a small bowl, stir soy with sherry, brown sugar, cornstarch, ginger, garlic and sesame oil until cornstarch is dissolved.
Coat a large frying pan or wok with vegetable oil and set over medium-high heat. Add steak and stir-fry until it changes colour, 2 to 3 min. Add vegetables. Stir the sauce and pour in. Stir-fry until vegetables are tender crisp, 4 to 5 min. Mix in cilantro. Serve over noodles or rice.
