Ginger Garlic Beef with Kailan
Tender beef stir-fried with ginger, garlic, and crunchy kailan (Chinese broccoli). A flavorful and healthy Malaysian-inspired dish, ensuring no shellfish ingredients are used.
Ingredients
- 1 lb Beef Sirloin
- 1 bunch Kailan (Chinese Broccoli)
- 2 tbsp Ginger
- 4 cloves Garlic
- 3 tbsp Soy Sauce
- 2 tbsp Oyster Sauce Substitute
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil
Instructions
- 1Slice the 1 lb Beef Sirloin thinly against the grain into pieces about 1/4-inch thick. In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 3 tbsp Soy Sauce and 1 tbsp Cornstarch. Mix well to coat the beef evenly, then let it marinate for 10 minutes.
- 2Wash the 1 bunch Kailan (Chinese Broccoli). Cut off the tough bottom ends of the stems. Chop the kailan into bite-sized pieces, about 1.5 inches long, separating the stems from the leaves if they are thick.
- 3Peel and mince the 2 tbsp Ginger and 4 cloves Garlic. Prepare a wok or large pan by placing it over medium-high heat. Add 2 tbsp Vegetable Oil to the pan. Once the oil is shimmering, add the minced ginger and garlic and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant, being careful not to burn them.
- 4Add the marinated beef to the hot wok with the ginger and garlic. Stir-fry the beef for 2-3 minutes, or until it is browned on all sides. The beef should be cooked through but still tender.
- 5Add the chopped kailan stems to the wok and stir-fry for 1 minute. Then, add the kailan leaves and continue to stir-fry for another 2-3 minutes, until the kailan is tender-crisp and bright green. You should hear a gentle sizzle as it cooks.
- 6Pour in the 2 tbsp Oyster Sauce Substitute and stir everything together to coat the beef and kailan evenly. Cook for an additional 30 seconds to allow the sauce to heat through.
- 7Remove the wok from the heat and serve the Ginger Garlic Beef with Kailan immediately.
