Ingredients

• 500 grams beef sirloin
• 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
• 3 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons hoisin sauce
• 1 tablespoon sesame oil
• 3 cloves garlic
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 3 stalks green onions
• 1 red bell pepper
• 1 carrot
• 0.5 teaspoons crushed red pepper flakes
• 2 cups white or brown rice (cooked)

Directions

Step 1

Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick, and transfer to a medium bowl.

Step 2

In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, minced garlic, and cornstarch to create a marinade.

Step 3

Pour the marinade over the beef strips, ensuring each piece is well-coated. Cover and let marinate for at least 10 minutes, or up to 30 minutes for better flavor.

Step 4

While the beef marinates, thinly slice the red bell pepper and carrot into matchstick-sized pieces. Chop the green onions into 1-inch pieces.

Step 5

Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the marinated beef strips in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 6

Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the skillet. Toss in the sliced red bell pepper, carrot, and crushed red pepper flakes. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.

Step 7

Return the beef strips to the skillet along with any remaining marinade. Stir-fry all the ingredients together for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and coat the beef and vegetables evenly.

Step 8

Stir in the chopped green onions and cook for an additional 30 seconds for added freshness.

Step 9

Remove from heat and serve immediately over cooked white or brown rice, garnished with extra green onions if desired.
