Thai beef dish

An easy, mildly spicy stir-fry dish for a weeknight or when you are short on time.

Preparation

1. If desired, briefly stir-fry sugar snap peas, snow peas, small broccoli florets or green asparagus with the ingredients.
2. Add the meat and mix with cornstarch, then set aside. Mix the ingredients for the sauce and set this aside as well.
3. Heat a wok or frying pan and add the oil. Once hot, add the pepper and ginger and fry for a few minutes, then add the garlic and the meat. Toss everything together and sear the meat. If desired, add the vegetables, then add the sauce. Toss everything together again and let it simmer briefly. Cook the meat through or leave the inside slightly pink, depending on your preference.
   Taste and add a little salt if desired.
4. Serve with rice or noodles, garnish with spring onions and sesame seeds if desired.
