Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
2 teaspoons cornstarch
2 tablespoons toasted sesame oil
8 ounces top round steak, thinly sliced against the grain
2 bunches scallions, cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 English cucumber, quartered and cut into 1-inch pieces
1/2 head napa cabbage, cut into 1-inch-thick strips
1 cup shredded carrots (about 2)
1 tablespoon minced peeled ginger
2 red jalapeno peppers, halved, seeded and thinly sliced
3 cups cooked white rice, for serving

Steps:

Whisk the brown sugar, soy sauce, cornstarch, 2 tablespoons water and 2 teaspoons sesame oil in a bowl. Add the steak and toss.
Heat a large skillet over high heat; add 2 teaspoons sesame oil. Add the scallions, cucumber and cabbage; stir-fry until the vegetables start softening, about 2 minutes. Add the carrots and 1/4 cup water; cook, stirring, until the water evaporates and the vegetables are tender, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a bowl; wipe out the skillet.
Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons sesame oil in the skillet over medium-high heat. Add the ginger and jalapenos; stir-fry 30 seconds. Transfer the steak to the skillet using a slotted spoon; stir-fry until browned, 2 to 3 minutes.
Add the steak marinade back to the skillet and cook, stirring, until thick, about 2 minutes. Return the vegetables to the skillet and heat through. Serve over rice.

Yield 2 servings

3 tablespoons sunflower oil
250 grams (9 ounces) sirloin or rib-eye steak, thinly sliced
1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds
200 grams (7 ounces) dried udon noodles
4 baby bok choy, quartered

1 1/2 tablespoons rice wine vinegar
4 tablespoons soy sauce

Make sure you have a large pot of salted water at boiling point over a high heat. Have a frying pan over a high heat also.

While the noodles are cooking add 2 tablespoons of the oil to the frying pan, season the beef and sprinkle with half the sesame seeds. Add to the pan and fry for 30 seconds on each side just enough for it to turn brown and nicely char. Set aside on a plate.
Add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the pan along with the vegetables and toss over high heat to soften them slightly. Add a splash of water along with the rice wine vinegar, soy sauce and oyster sauce let them steam for a minute then return the beef to the pan and toss along with the drained noodles. Serve with the cilantro leaves and mint over the top and remaining sesame seeds.
