The great thing about a stir fry is how inexpensive it is to throw together and how versatile you can make them! It’s a great way to use up some of those veggies left in the fridge and an awesome way to test out new flavors. This recipe can be customized to your liking, whether it be the protein, veggies or sauce – you can make it your own!
Marinade
Sauce
Oyster Sauce – Use equal parts dark soy sauce and hoisin as a substitute, though I recommend picking up a bottle next time you’re in the Asian aisle of your local grocery store. Beef Broth – I always opt for low sodium to control the salt in the dish. Soy Sauce – I used both low sodium and dark soy sauce. I love adding dark soy sauce to deepen the color of the beef, so if you don’t have it, don’t sweat, simply skip it. Mirin – Mirin is sweet and will enhance the umami flavor in this dish. If you can’t find mirin, you can substitute dry white wine or rice vinegar, though you’ll need to counteract the sourness with about a 1/2 teaspoon of sugar for every tablespoon you use.
Stir Fry
Vegetable Oil – Substitute with sunflower, safflower or avocado oil. Onion – White or yellow onion, sliced. Garlic – Fresh is best! Roughly chopped. Carrot – Shredded or cut into thin strips. Feel free to add any other veggies or greens, such as Chinese cabbage, bok choy, mushrooms, etc. Green Onions – Cut into long strips. Sesame Oil – Regular or toasted. I love adding this at the end when the dish is finished cooking, this way the flavor of it won’t be mixed in with everything else.
