Directions
- 1
Cut the beef into cubes and marinate with salt, lemon juice, black pepper, your favorite seasoning blend, flour, and a splash of soy sauce. Let rest for 15 minutes.
- 2
Blanch the harder vegetables (carrots, green beans, broccoli, and cauliflower) in boiling salted water for 3 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- 3
Slice the onion, bell pepper, and fresh herbs.
- 4
Heat the sesame oil in a large non-stick pan or wok over high heat. Stir-fry the beef, stirring frequently, until browned on the outside.
- 5
Add the onion and cook for 2 minutes, stirring often.
- 6
Add the bell pepper and fresh herbs, stir and cook for another minute.

Add the drained vegetables and pour in the remaining soy sauce. Toss everything together — add a splash of water if needed. Cover and cook until the vegetables are tender but still have a bite, stirring regularly.
- 8
Uncover, let the sauce reduce over high heat, adjust seasoning, and serve immediately over steamed white rice.
💡 Chef's Tip
For extra depth, add a teaspoon of freshly grated ginger and a minced garlic clove to the marinade. Sesame oil is what makes this dish special — keep it.
