Easy Classic Chinese Beef Stir Fry image

Made with a classic Chinese stir fry sauce, this is a great recipe to use up whatever leftover greens you have in the fridge! Instead of making this Sauce, you can use my All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce (see Note 1) If using economical beef, consider tenderising it the Chinese way ("velveting", simple, highly effective, see Note 5!)

Provided by Bill

Categories     Beef

Time 40m

Number Of Ingredients 19

12 ounces flank steak ((sliced ⅛-inch thick into 2- to 3-inch pieces))
1 teaspoon water
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon cornstarch
2 teaspoons vegetable oil
4 cups bok choy ((250g, cut into 1x3-inch pieces, washed and drained))
¾ cup Bunashimeji or Beech mushrooms, washed and drained ((50g))
¾ cup sugar snap peas or snow peas ((65g, washed and drained))
½ cup warm water or beef stock
¼ teaspoon sesame oil
2 teaspoons light soy sauce
1 teaspoon dark soy sauce ((or mushroom flavored dark soy sauce if you have it))
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
¼ teaspoon sugar
3 tablespoons canola oil ((divided))
½ teaspoon minced ginger
2 cloves garlic ((finely minced))
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine
2 teaspoons cornstarch ((mixed with 1 tablespoon water))

Steps:

  • Mix together the marinade ingredients with the beef until well-coated, and set aside for 30 minutes or overnight. Next, prepare your veggies and set aside.
  • In a small bowl, mix the water (or beef stock, if using), sesame oil, soy sauces, oyster sauce and sugar, and set aside.
  • Heat your wok on high heat and spread 2 tablespoons of oil around the perimeter to coat. Once the wok and oil start to smoke, add the beef, and use your metal wok spatula to spread the beef in one even layer. Sear for 30 seconds. Turn the beef to sear the uncooked sides for another 30 seconds. At this point, the beef should be about 80% done. Turn off the heat and transfer the beef back to the marinade bowl.
  • Next, with the heat back on high, add the ginger and 1 tablespoon of oil to the wok. Cook for 10 seconds, and add the garlic. After 5 seconds, add the mushrooms and stir fry for another 15 seconds, giving them a good sear. Add the Shaoxing wine.
  • Next, add the snap peas and the bok choy, and stir fry on the highest heat for another 20 seconds until the bok choy begins to wilt. Stir in the beef and your prepared sauce mixture. Gather everything in the center of the wok.
  • When everything comes back up to a simmer, and the sides of the wok begin to super-heat, Stir fry everything in a circular motion so the beef and vegetables hit the sides of the wok--this gets you that wok hay flavor!
  • Pour the cornstarch slurry in the center of the wok while stirring. The sauce will immediately thicken, so work fast to stir everything together for another 20 seconds to evenly coat the beef and vegetables in the sauce. There should not be any standing sauce - everything should be clinging to the beef and vegetable stir fry. This is the classic restaurant-style preparation, but you can add more stock and salt or soy sauce to taste if you like a saucier stir-fry.
  • Turn off the heat and transfer your beef vegetable stir-fry to a serving plate; you can also dish it out individually on a bed of rice for a great one-plate meal. Enjoy immediately. Though you probably don't need us to tell you that.

Categories     Chicken Stir-Fry

Time 30m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup mango nectar
½ cup chicken stock
2 tablespoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 pound skinless, boneless chicken breast, cut into 1/4-inch strips
1 small onion, halved and sliced
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 medium red bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
1 medium green bell pepper, cut into 1/2-inch strips
2 medium mangos - peeled, seeded, and cut into thin strips
2 cups hot cooked rice

Steps:

  • Whisk mango nectar, chicken stock, cornstarch, and soy sauce together in a bowl until well combined; set sauce aside.
  • Heat oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add chicken, onion, and garlic and fry until onion is soft and chicken is no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 3 to 5 minutes.
  • Add bell peppers to the pan and toss gently. Cover and steam until softened but still firm, about 3 minutes. Add mangos; cook until heated through, about 1 minute.
  • Give reserved sauce another quick whisk and stir gently into the pan. Cook until sauce is thick, 1 to 2 minutes; peppers and mangos should still be firm, not mushy!
  • Remove from heat and serve with rice.

Tips:

  • Mise en Place: Before you start cooking, make sure you have all your ingredients prepped and measured. This will help you stay organized and avoid scrambling during the cooking process.
  • Use a Wok: If you have one, use a wok to stir-fry the beef and vegetables. A wok's shape and high heat help to create a quick and even sear, resulting in tender and flavorful beef.
  • Tenderize the Beef: To ensure the beef is tender, consider marinating it in a mixture of soy sauce, rice wine, and cornstarch for at least 30 minutes before cooking.
  • Slice the Beef Thinly: For best results, slice the beef against the grain into thin strips. This will help it cook quickly and evenly.
  • Cook the Beef in Batches: If you're cooking a large amount of beef, cook it in batches to prevent overcrowding the pan. Overcrowding can lead to uneven cooking and steamed beef.
  • Use High Heat: Stir-frying is a high-heat cooking method, so make sure your wok or pan is nice and hot before adding the ingredients. This will help create a sear on the beef and vegetables, locking in their flavors.
  • Add the Sauce Gradually: When adding the sauce to the stir-fry, do it gradually and taste as you go. This will help you achieve the desired level of flavor without overdoing it.
  • Serve Immediately: Stir-fries are best served immediately after cooking, while they're still hot and fresh. This will ensure the flavors are at their peak.

Conclusion:

This Chinese beef and mango stir-fry is a quick, easy, and delicious meal that's perfect for a weeknight dinner. The tender beef, sweet and tangy mango, and crunchy vegetables are all coated in a flavorful sauce that will leave you craving more. So next time you're looking for a satisfying and flavorful meal, give this stir-fry a try - you won't be disappointed!
