Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams plant-based beef strips
- 2 whole medium onions
- 1 whole red bell pepper
- 200 grams broccoli florets
- 3 cloves garlic
- 1 tablespoon fresh ginger
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 100 milliliters vegetable broth
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 whole scallions
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Instructions
Thinly slice the plant-based beef strips if not pre-sliced.
Peel and slice the onions into thin wedges.
Dice the red bell pepper and cut the broccoli into small florets.
Mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, mix together the soy sauce, vegetable broth, and cornstarch until smooth to create the stir-fry sauce.
Heat half the olive oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the plant-based beef strips and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they are browned. Remove from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining olive oil to the pan, along with the onions, red bell pepper, and broccoli. Stir-fry for 5-6 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Add the garlic and ginger to the pan and stir-fry for another 1 minute until fragrant.
Return the plant-based beef strips to the pan and mix well with the vegetables.
Pour in the prepared stir-fry sauce, stirring continuously as it thickens, coating all the ingredients evenly, about 2-3 minutes.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry, add the black pepper, and toss to combine.
Chop the scallions and sprinkle them along with sesame seeds over the top before serving.
Serve hot with rice or noodles as desired.
