Packed with protein, vibrant vegetables, and a delectable sauce, it’s a dish that will tantalize your taste buds and make a regular appearance at your dinner table. Here’s how to make it in just minutes!

Ingredients:

• 400 grams of flank or sirloin steak, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
• 1 red bell pepper, sliced
• 1 green bell pepper, sliced
• 1 medium onion, sliced
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 thumb-sized ginger, julienned
• 1 cup of broccoli florets
• 1 carrot, thinly sliced into ribbons
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 1 teaspoon sugar
• Sesame seeds for garnish (optional)
• Green onions, chopped (for garnish)

Directions:

1. Start by preparing the beef: In a bowl, toss the thinly sliced beef with cornstarch until well coated. This helps to thicken the sauce later and keeps the beef tender when cooked.
2. In a large wok or frying pan, heat 1 tablespoon of oil over high heat. Add the beef in batches, searing quickly until browned, but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside on a plate.
3. In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Stir-fry the garlic and ginger for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant. Then add the onion, bell peppers, broccoli, and carrots. Stir-fry for a couple of minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
4. Return the beef to the pan with the vegetables. Pour in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Stir everything together and cook for another couple of minutes until the beef is cooked through and the sauce has thickened.
5. Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. If the stir-fry seems too dry, you can add a little water to help create more sauce.
6. Garnish with sesame seeds and chopped green onions before serving.

Serve this flavorful beef stir-fry over a bed of steamed white rice or noodles for a complete meal. Enjoy your homemade takeout-style dinner that’s both satisfying and healthy!

Tips:

• Feel free to use any type of vegetables you like or have on hand. Snow peas, baby corn, and mushrooms are also great additions to a stir-fry.
• For best results, use a cast-iron skillet or a wok for even heat distribution and the perfect sear on the beef.
• Make sure all the ingredients are prepped before you start cooking, as stir-frying is a quick process.
• If you like a bit of heat, you can add a teaspoon of chili flakes or a dash of hot sauce to the stir-fry.
