Tips:

  • Choose high-quality beef: Opt for tender cuts like flank steak or sirloin, as they cook quickly and absorb the marinade well.
  • Use a flavorful marinade: The marinade is crucial for infusing the beef with bold flavors. Experiment with various combinations of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, garlic, ginger, and brown sugar.
  • Marinate the beef for at least 30 minutes: This allows the flavors to penetrate the beef and tenderize it.
  • Cook the beef in a hot pan: High heat sears the outside of the beef, locking in the juices and creating a delicious crust.
  • Stir-fry the beef in batches: Avoid overcrowding the pan, as this will result in steamed beef instead of stir-fried.
  • Use fresh asparagus: Look for asparagus spears that are bright green and have tightly closed tips.
  • Blanch the asparagus briefly: This helps preserve its vibrant color and crisp texture.
  • Add the asparagus to the beef towards the end of cooking: This ensures that the asparagus remains tender-crisp.
  • Use a flavorful sauce: The sauce is key to bringing all the flavors together. Experiment with different combinations of soy sauce, rice vinegar, sesame oil, and brown sugar.
  • Serve immediately: Sesame beef with asparagus is best served hot, garnished with sesame seeds and green onions.
