Serves 4

Ingredients

Beef sirloin: 1 pound, sliced into thin strips
Curry powder: 2 tablespoons
Soy sauce: 2 tablespoons
Garlic: 3 cloves, minced
Ginger: 1 tablespoon, grated
Vegetable oil: 2 tablespoons
Bell peppers: 1 cup, sliced (mixed colors)
Onion: 1 medium, sliced
Carrots: 1 cup, julienned
Broccoli florets: 1 cup
Coconut milk: 1 cup
Fish sauce: 1 tablespoon
Lime juice: 2 tablespoons
Fresh cilantro: 1/4 cup, chopped
Cooked rice: 4 cups, for serving

Instructions

In a bowl, combine the sliced beef, curry powder, soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Mix well and let it marinate for 10 minutes to infuse the flavors.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering.
Add the marinated beef to the skillet and stir fry for 2-3 minutes, until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the sliced bell peppers, onion, julienned carrots, and broccoli florets. Stir fry for 3-4 minutes, until the vegetables are crisp-tender but still vibrant.
Return the cooked beef to the skillet and add the coconut milk, fish sauce, and lime juice. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
Cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to meld together beautifully.
Remove from heat and sprinkle with fresh chopped cilantro for a burst of flavor.
Serve the curry beef stir fry over a bed of warm, fluffy cooked rice.

Tips

💡 For a spicier kick, add sliced fresh chili peppers or a dash of chili paste to the stir fry.
💡 Feel free to substitute the beef with chicken, shrimp, or tofu for a different protein option.
💡 This dish pairs wonderfully with a side of steamed jasmine rice or quinoa for a wholesome meal.
