Steps:
- Prepare the stir fry sauce first. In a small bowl stir together the soy sauce, toasted sesame oil, sriracha, and brown sugar. Set the sauce aside.
- Shred the vegetables so they are ready to go when you need them. Cut one small cabbage in half, remove the core, and then finely shred the leaves of one half the cabbage (4-6 cups once shredded, save the other half for another recipe). Peel two carrots, then use a cheese grater to shred them (1 cup shredded). Slice three green onions. Mince two cloves of garlic. Peel a knob of ginger using either a vegetable peeler or by scraping with the side of a spoon, then grate it using a small-holed cheese grater.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot add the cooking oil, ground beef, garlic, ginger, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Cook the beef until browned (about five minutes).
- Add the cabbage and carrots to the skillet and continue to stir and cook until the cabbage is slightly wilted (or fully wilted, if you prefer). Stir in the prepared sauce and the green onions. Top with a sprinkle of sesame seeds and a drizzle of sriracha, then serve.

BLACK PEPPER BEEF AND CABBAGE STIR-FRY
Coarsely crushed black peppercorns star in this quick weeknight dish, which is built primarily from pantry staples. Don't be shy about adding the entire tablespoon of pepper, as it balances out the richness of the beef and adds a lightly spicy bite to the dish. A quick rub of garlic, brown sugar, salt, pepper and cornstarch seasons the beef; the cornstarch helps tenderize the beef and later imparts a silky texture to the sauce. Feel free to marinate the beef up to 8 hours ahead and cook when you're ready. If leftovers remain, tuck them into a crunchy baguette or roll them into a wrap.

Steps:
- Remove and discard the fat from the sirloin and slice into thin 1-2" strips against the grain. Put the meat in a bowl with the corn starch. Stir until the meat is coated, then fold in the soy sauce, sesame oil and the rice wine. Put in the fridge to marinade for 15 minutes at least.
- Remove the outer leaves from the head of cabbage, and wash the cabbage. Shake off the rest of the water and break off the leaves. Cut out the thick white heart of each leaf and cut the remaining frill into inch-square pieces.
- Heat a pan over medium high to high heat and add half the peanut oil. Take the strips of meat out of the marinade, shake off the moisture as well as possible and fry them in the pan on both sides, in small batches, about 1 minute per side. Put the meat aside in a bowl and cover.
- Add the rest of the peanut oil to the pan and when it's hot, put in the garlic, ginger and green onions. Stir-fry quickly until the onions begin to brown, then add the meat back in, together with the meat juices from the bowl. Quickly add the cabbage and stir-fry for 30 seconds. Then add the oyster sauce and stir in quickly. Serve immediately.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: Flank steak, skirt steak, or top sirloin are all good choices for stir-fries. They are tender and flavorful, and they cook quickly.
- Slice the beef thinly against the grain: This will help it cook evenly and quickly.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and cornstarch will help it tenderize and flavor it.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: This will help the beef sear quickly and prevent it from sticking.
- Add the vegetables in stages: Start with the vegetables that take the longest to cook, such as carrots and broccoli. Then, add the vegetables that cook more quickly, such as bell peppers and onions.
- Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: You don't want them to be mushy.
- Add the beef to the wok or skillet and stir-fry until it is cooked through: This should only take a few minutes.
- Serve the stir-fry immediately over rice or noodles: Garnish with green onions and sesame seeds.
