Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the ingredients, the better the stir-fry will be. Look for fresh vegetables, flavorful sauces, and tender beef.
- Cook the beef in small batches: This will help to prevent the beef from overcrowding the pan and becoming tough. Cook the beef in batches until it is browned on all sides.
- Use a hot pan: A hot pan will help to sear the beef and vegetables, giving them a nice caramelized flavor.
- Stir-fry the vegetables until they are tender-crisp: You don't want the vegetables to be too soft or too crunchy. Aim for a tender-crisp texture.
- Don't overcook the stir-fry: Stir-fries are meant to be cooked quickly. Overcooking will make the beef tough and the vegetables mushy.
- Serve the stir-fry immediately: Stir-fries are best served hot and fresh. Enjoy them right away for the best flavor.
