How to Make Beef With Cashews

  1. Heat 2 tablespoons of peanut oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the sliced beef and stir-fry for 3-5 minutes, until browned. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
  2. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of peanut oil to the wok.
  3. Add the sliced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 1 minute until fragrant.
  4. Add the roasted cashews and stir-fry for another 30 seconds.
  5. Return the beef to the wok.
  6. In a small bowl, whisk together the cornstarch, soy sauce, brown sugar, rice vinegar, and beef broth until smooth.
  7. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the wok. Stir constantly until the sauce comes to a boil and thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
  8. Serve immediately over steamed rice.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Small additions can make a big impact! Try a sprinkle of fresh herbs, a dash of your favorite spice blend, or a squeeze of citrus just before serving to really enhance the flavors of your dish.
