  • 2 tbsp Avocado Oil

Original measure retained: its cup/spoon or fluid-volume standard is unspecified.

Instructions

  1. 1Rinse the about 450 g Shirataki Noodles thoroughly under cold water, then pat them very dry with paper towels. If you prefer shorter noodles, cut them into desired lengths now.
  2. 2Slice the about 225 g Beef Sirloin into thin strips, about 0.635 cm thick. Julienne the 1 medium Carrot and the 1/2 medium Bell Pepper into thin matchsticks. Finely chop the 1/2 medium Onion.
  3. 3In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef sirloin with 1 tablespoon of the 3 tbsp Soy Sauce (or Tamari), the 2 cloves of minced Garlic, 1 tablespoon of Erythritol (or Monk Fruit Sweetener), 1 tablespoon of the 2 tbsp Sesame Oil, and the 1/4 tsp Black Pepper. Mix well to coat the beef and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
  4. 4Heat 1 tablespoon of the 2 tbsp Avocado Oil in a large 30.48 cm skillet or wok over medium-high heat (204.4°C / 200°C). Add the marinated beef in a single layer and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Transfer the cooked beef to a clean plate and set aside.
  5. 5Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of Avocado Oil to the same skillet and heat over medium-high heat (204.4°C / 200°C). Add the julienned carrot, chopped onion, and julienned bell pepper. Stir-fry for 4-6 minutes, until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
  6. 6Add the 2 cups of Spinach to the skillet with the vegetables and stir-fry for 1-2 minutes, until the spinach is just wilted.
  7. 7Add the rinsed and dried about 450 g Shirataki Noodles to the skillet along with the remaining 2 tablespoons of Soy Sauce (or Tamari) and the remaining 1 tablespoon of Sesame Oil. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, until the noodles are heated through and well combined with the vegetables.
  8. 8Return the cooked beef to the skillet with the noodles and vegetables. Toss everything together gently for 1 minute to ensure it is all heated through.
  9. 9Serve the Keto Japchae immediately.
