Vegetables

Sauce

For Cooking

Method

Preparing the Beef

  1. 1

    Marinate the Beef

    In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, rice wine, cornstarch, and sesame oil. Cut the beef sirloin into thin strips against the grain and add it to the marinade. Mix well to coat the beef evenly and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.

Preparing the Vegetables

  1. 2

    Chop the Vegetables

    While the beef is marinating, slice the bell peppers into thin strips, chop the onion into wedges, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger. Set aside the chopped vegetables.

  2. 3

    Prepare the Scallions

    Chop the scallions into 1-inch pieces, separating the white parts from the green tops.

Making the Sauce

  1. 4

    Combine Sauce Ingredients

    In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, chili paste, sugar, and water. Stir well to combine and set aside.

Cooking the Dish

  1. 5

    Stir-fry the Beef

    Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

  2. 6

    Stir-fry the Vegetables

    In the same pan, add the white parts of the scallions, garlic, ginger, onion, bell peppers, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.

  3. 7

    Combine Everything

    Return the cooked beef to the pan with the vegetables. Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables, stirring well to combine. Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until everything is heated through and coated with the sauce.

Serving

  1. 8

    Garnish and Serve

    Garnish with the green tops of the scallions. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
