oriental-style beef and vegetables
This recipe may look like it requires a lot of prep, but to save time, I cut my vegetables while the meat is browning.
Ingredients:1 lbs of eye of round or other lean cut of beef, cut into 2 inch strips
1/4 cup sesame oil
3 small or 2 large stalks of celery, sliced into 1/2 inch slices
2 large slices of onion, cut into large chunks
1/2 medium green pepper, cut into large chunks
2 teaspoons of minced garlic
1 teaspoon of rice wine vinegar
1 teaspoon of ginger
1/2 teaspoon of cumin
1/2 teaspoon of pepper
- Place sesame oil in non-stick skillet or wok and heat briefly. Add beef strips to brown, stirring occasionally, over medium high heat.
- While beef is browning, cut vegetables.
- After beef is browned, add vegetables and seasonings.
- Continue cooking over medium to medium high heat, until vegetables are the consistency you prefer. I prefer my vegetables cooked well. You may like them crisper and less done.
- Enjoy!!
