Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 300 grams vegetarian beef strips
- 300 grams broccoli florets
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 4 tablespoons water
- 3 units garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 large carrot, sliced thinly
- 1 medium red bell pepper, sliced
- 2 units green onions, sliced
- 1 teaspoon sesame seeds
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
Instructions
Begin by preparing the soy sauce mixture. In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, cornstarch, and water, whisking until smooth. Set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat. Add the vegetarian beef strips and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they are browned. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and sauté for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the broccoli florets, sliced carrot, and bell pepper to the skillet. Stir-fry the vegetables for 4-5 minutes, or until they start to become tender-crisp and vibrant in color.
Return the cooked vegetarian beef strips to the skillet. Pour the soy sauce mixture over the stir-fry and add the black pepper, tossing everything to combine.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently, until the sauce has thickened and evenly coats the beef and vegetables.
Drizzle the sesame oil over the stir-fry and give it a final toss.
Garnish with sliced green onions and a sprinkle of sesame seeds before serving. Serve hot as is or over steamed rice or noodles.
