Birthday flowers!
John made this for my birthday dinner and it is a keeper. He added snow peas as well. You could add any other vegetables.
Changes we would make:
More ginger and garlic
Add some spice - jalapenos or crushed peppers
Ingredients
1 tbsp (15 mL) vegetable oil
1-1/4 lb (625 g) boneless Ontario Beef Grilling Steak, cut in thin strips
2 tsp (10 mL) grated fresh gingerroot
1 clove garlic, minced
1 each Ontario Greenhouse Sweet Red Pepper and Orange Pepper, cut in thin strips
2 Ontario Onions, sliced in thin strips
2 cups (500 mL) sliced Ontario Mushrooms
1-1/3 cups (325 mL) beef broth
3 tbsp (45 mL) sodium-reduced soy sauce
3 tbsp (45 mL) cornstarch
1/4 cup (50 mL) water
Preparation
In wok or large deep skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add beef, ginger and garlic; stir-fry for 3 minutes or until beef is browned.
Add red and orange peppers, onions and mushrooms; stir-fry until tender-crisp about 3 minutes. Add broth and soy sauce; bring to a simmer. Cover and steam for 1 minute.
In small bowl, combine cornstarch and water; stir into meat and vegetable mixture. Cook stirring, for 1 minute or until sauce is thickened. Serve over cooked rice or noodles.

ReplyDeleteHope your birthday was a happy one! This recipe sounds good, though I don't eat beef. I guess you could also use tofu or just more veggies in place of the meat.
ReplyDeleteYummm!!!!! Always more garlic . . . and hot peppers. :) Happy birthday!
