Stir Fry

Use some of your bargain fresh veggies to create a quick and easy summer dinner for your family!

Sauce:

1/3 C Soy Sauce
1/2 C Water or Broth
2 Tbsp Oyster Sauce
2 tsp Seasame Oil
2 Tbsp Corn Starch
1 Tbsp Green Onion
1 Tbsp Grated Fresh Ginger or 1/2 tsp ginger spice
1 Tbsp Chopped Fresh Cilantro

Mix all ingredients in a lidded container and shake until combined. Taste and adjust your seasonings as nessesary. I also like to add some hot chili flakes to my sauce when I'm not cooking for my kids.

Basic Stir Fry Ingredients:

1 Tbsp canola oil
1 lb of meat sliced thin (to get your meat to slice nicely place in the freezer for 15-30 minutes prior to slicing. You'll be able to get nice thin slices easily)
3 cloves of garlic minced
1 Tbsp of green onions sliced
1 tsp ground black pepper

Put your oil, garlic and green onions into your pan on high heat. Stir occasionally until your garlic just starts to brown. As soon as your garlic starts to brown, throw in your meat (seasoned with the black pepper) and stir and fry until the meat is no longer pink. Once your meat has cooked throw in 4-6 cups of assorted sliced vegetables. Once the vegetables are crisp tender add your sauce and cook until sauce thickens and becomes glossy.

Serve over hot jasmine rice!
