Zubereitung von Beef With Fresh Asparagus
- In a bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons dry sherry or wine, 1 tablespoon sesame oil, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, 1 tablespoon cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon vegetable oil.
- Cut 1 lb beef (sirloin or flank steak recommended) across the grain into 1 1/2 by 2-inch slices.
- Add the beef to the marinade, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate for at least 2 hours (or longer for deeper flavor).
- Snap off and discard the tough ends of 1 lb asparagus. Cut the asparagus diagonally into 1 1/2-2 inch lengths.
- Peel and cut 1 medium carrot into 1/2-inch rounds.
- Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon grated ginger and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the marinated beef to the skillet and stir-fry until the redness disappears, about 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Remove and set aside.
- Add the asparagus and carrots to the wok/skillet and stir-fry for 30 seconds.
- Add 1/4 cup beef broth or water, 1 tablespoon soy sauce (adjust to taste), and 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (optional) to the wok/skillet. Stir to combine.
- Cover and cook for 2 1/2-3 minutes, or until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
- Return the beef to the skillet. Stir well to combine.
- If desired, create a slurry with remaining 1 tablespoon of cornstarch mixed with 2 tablespoons of cold water. Stir into the skillet to thicken the sauce.
- Serve hot over cooked rice. Garnish with sesame seeds (optional).
