For the Stir-Fry

For Assembly

  • 1 tbl Olive Oil for sautéing vegetables

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Start by washing and chopping all your vegetables into bite-sized pieces, and don’t forget to finely mince the garlic.
  • Measure out your sauces for a smooth cooking experience.

Cooking

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of sesame oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Sauté the minced garlic for about 30 seconds until fragrant, then add the ground beef.
  • Cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes.
  • Stir in the soy sauce, chili flakes, and brown sugar, allowing everything to simmer for 3-4 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.
  • In a separate pan, warm 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat.
  • Briefly sauté 1 clove of minced garlic before adding the mushrooms.
  • Cook for about 2 minutes, then toss in the broccoli, zucchini, and red bell pepper.
  • Stir-fry for an additional 4-5 minutes until vegetables are tender-crisp.
  • Serve the steamed rice in bowls, topped generously with the spicy stir-fried beef and colorful veggies.
  • Drizzle any leftover sauce over the top for extra deliciousness.

Notes

Optional: Garnish with chopped scallions or toasted sesame seeds for an added crunch and flavor boost. Use day-old rice for better texture.
