How to Make Asian Fire Beef
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons sesame oil, 2 tablespoons brown sugar, 2 minced cloves garlic, and 1/2 cup thinly sliced red onion.
- Stir in 1 teaspoon black pepper, 1-2 teaspoons red pepper flakes (adjust to taste), 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, 1 cup sliced leeks, and 1 cup shredded carrots.
- Add 1 lb thinly sliced beef (sirloin or flank steak recommended) to the bowl and mix thoroughly with your hands to ensure even coating.
- Cover the bowl and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight for maximum flavor.
- Heat 1 tablespoon cooking oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the marinated beef and its marinade to the hot wok. Stir-fry constantly for 3-5 minutes, or until the beef is cooked through and slightly charred.
- Remove from heat and serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
- **Optional Korean Style:** For a Korean twist, serve the fire beef wrapped in red lettuce leaves.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
