1
In a bowl, combine the marinade and beef and mix well.
-
2
Set aside to marinate while you ready the other ingredients.
-
3
Bring a large saucepan of salted water to a boil.
-
4
Add the cauliflower and parboil for 1 minute, or until crisp tender.
-
5
Drain and flush with cold water to cool quickly.
-
6
In a wok or large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of the oil over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking.
-
7
Add the onion and stir-fry for about 30 seconds, or until fragrant.
-
8
Add the garlic and stir-fry for about 15 seconds, or until aromatic.
-
9
To prevent the onion and garlic from getting stuck under the beef and charring, bank them on one side of the pan.
-
10
Raise the heat to high and add the beef, spreading it out into a single layer.
-
11
Let it cook, undisturbed, for about 1 minute.
-
12
When the beef begins to brown, use a spatula to flip and stir-fry it, incorporating the onion and garlic, for another 1 to 2 minutes, or until the beef is still slightly rare.
-
13
Transfer to a plate.
-
14
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon oil to the pan.
-
15
When it is hot, add the cauliflower and stir-fry for about 1 minute, or until heated through.
-
16
Return the beef, onion, and garlic, along with any juices, to the pan and stir-fry quickly to combine.
-
17
If the ingredients start to look dry, splash in a little water and cook until it evaporates.
-
18
This hydrates and removes bits sticking to the bottom.
-
19
Continue stir-frying to heat and finish cooking the beef, splashing in more water if needed.
-
20
When the beef no longer shows signs of rareness, after about 1 minute, it is done.

Transfer the beef and cauliflower to a serving plate, top with a generous sprinkle of pepper, and garnish with the cilantro.
-
22
Serve immediately.
