Once I made it two things happened 1) Michael said it was the best meal I've ever made! 2) My kids insisted that we have it weekly, so we've decided to start having stir-Fridays. Woo to the hoo!
It really is that good! For the most part I stuck to Wendy's instructions, but I used fast fry steaks instead, I didn't have steak spice, and I probably cook my veggies a little longer than most people, just because I love them a bit soft.
Here's the recipe she gave me... hope you like it!
Wendy's Ginger Beef Stir Fry
4 small Angus steaks thinly cut into strips and seasoned in steak spice, garlic, ginger, pepper
Mix a couple tablespoons of cornstarch with a couple tablespoons of water and toss with the meat
Chop up A lot of:
Broccoli
Cauliflower
Carrots
Mushrooms
Onion
(I threw in some other veggies I had: red pepper, celery)
Into some oil cook the meat and onion til desired done-ness.
Remove meat from pan/wok
Add veggies into pan with a cup of water. Stir fry about 5 min til veggies are desired done ness... Still a bit crisp is best. Add the meat back in.
Mix about 2/3 cup of soy sauce with a couple tbsp of brown sugar, some ginger, garlic, salt and pepper and a couple or 3? tbsp of corn starch. Mix well and add to pan. Cook a couple minutes til sauce is thickened.
Serve with rice.
You are loved by an almighty God,

This sounds good and I can't wait to try it. I should put in 2 tbsp. each brown sugar, ginger salt and pepper or 2 tbsp. brown sugar and some of each ginger, salt and pepper?
ReplyDeleteThank you for clarifying. I love reading your blog!
2 tblsp of brown sugar. The other spices I shook in there for flavor, but definitely not that much. I just added some. I think that ginger could be an over powering taste so maybe no more than a teaspoon of that one. You can always add a little more of this or that at the end according to taste.
DeleteHave most of the ingredients on hand except the steak. I'm going to try this today with chicken breast and I'll let you know how it goes.
ReplyDeleteWendy told me she made it with chicken and it was awesome too!
DeleteOh, that looks good. My husband really likes rice, so we're a big fan of stir fries here, too. And it's a fun way to experiment with different spices and sauces, too. I'll have to give this one a try!
ReplyDeleteI wanted to let you know that this turned out wonderfully for us. I used a different cut of beef that was on sale and I adjusted and substituted veggies for what I had on hand. It was just delicious! Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThis recipe looks delicious based on the images that you've put here. I will now cook this tomorrow so that I can eat a delicious food tomorrow. Thanks for sharing!
