1
Get your beef all chopped up and pretty.
-
2
Then accessorize it with some salt and pepper.
-
3
Beef is good and clean, I tell you.
-
4
Now were gonna get tricky.
-
5
We dont want to cook this beef.
-
6
We just want to sear it.
-
7
So, get your pan screaming hot and add a tablespoon of vegetable oil.
-
8
I like the smoke point of veggie oil plus it doesnt smell weird when you fry in it.
-
9
Okay, onto the beef.
-
10
Sear it until its no longer gray.
-
11
Then turn it and do it again.
-
12
Then take it off to rest on a pretty plate.
-
13
Its time to get your chop on.
-
14
Slice and half those bell peppers.
-
15
Slice those onions into about 1/2 inch slices.
-
16
Slice quick with a sharp knife and you wont cry.
-
17
I promise.
-
18
*sniff, sniff*
-
19
Add those to a big, heavy-bottomed pot on medium high heat with your other tablespoon of vegetable oil.
-
20
Do you wanna know why I like vegetable oil?
-
21
Oh, I already told you.
-
22
P.S.
-
23
I wont tell if you add some salt and pepper right here.
-
24
In fact, I encourage you to do so.
-
25
Slice and halve your squash.
-
26
Then do the same thing with the zucchini.
-
27
You have to because zucchini gets jealous.
-
28
Now add all ingredients from the squash and zucchini to the hot tub of peppers and onions.
-
29
You can also throw in the mushrooms, too.
-
30
Its all good, no worries.
-
31
Dont forget to salt and pepper again.
-
32
Layers are good.
-
33
Kind of like donkeys.
-
34
Let your veggie medley cook on screaming hot heat (with you stirring occasionally) for about 15 minutes.
-
35
Turn the heat down to medium low now.
-
36
The beef may rest no longer.
-
37
Its time to add it to the yummies of veggies.
-
38
Toss it in right on top cause its pretty and good.
-
39
Then add in your sauce ingredients (water, soy sauce, and sweet n sour sauce) so your meat and veggies can call themselves stir-fry.
-
40
And because its just that good man!
-
41
Sometimes I always add in crushed red pepper flakes right here ... because Im a crazy girl.
-
42
Thats why.
-
43
After this, cover the pot and let it rock and roll to the soft rock for about an hour.
-
44
When you come back, your Okie goodness should be looking and smelling irresistible.
-
45
Oh yeah, baby.
-
46
Id get me a spoon and do a salt check right about now.
-
47
Ladle your pot of yummy on top of some white rice.
-
48
And, thank your lucky stars for Okie Asian fusion.
