Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 g Plant-based beef strips
- 2 large Green bell peppers
- 1 medium Yellow onion
- 3 cloves Garlic
- 1 tbsp Ginger
- 3 tbsp Soy sauce (gluten-free if needed)
- 1 tbsp Maple syrup
- 2 tsp Rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 3 tbsp Water
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds
- 2 stalks Green onions
Instructions
Wash and slice the green bell peppers into thin strips.
Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion.
Mince the garlic and ginger.
In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, maple syrup, rice vinegar, cornstarch, and water until smooth to create the stir-fry sauce.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the plant-based beef strips and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, or until slightly browned. Remove them from the pan and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sesame oil, garlic, and ginger. Sauté for 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
Add the sliced green peppers and onions to the skillet. Stir-fry for 4-5 minutes, or until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.
Return the plant-based beef strips to the skillet and pour in the stir-fry sauce.
Stir everything together and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and coat all the ingredients evenly.
Garnish with sesame seeds and sliced green onions before serving.
Serve hot with steamed rice, noodles, or as desired.
