directions
- Saute the beef with 1/2 tablespoon garlic and about 1/2 tablespoon fresh ginger in a wok or in a nonstick skillet (I prefer a wok for this) with about 1 tablespoon sesame oil for 4-5 minutes, until almost cooked through; transfer to a plate.
- In the wok with remaining 1 tablespoon sesame oil, saute remaining garlic and ginger with hot pepper flakes, sliced onion, mushrooms and sweet pepper for about 4 minutes (make certain that the wok is hot).

I had gotten my butcher to slice up my meat, so much easier for me and that is what they are happy to do. Then I prepped all my stuff and had everything in little condiment cups to add when needed. Things just seem to go a lot faster for me when this is all done especially when there are a lot of ingredients to add in. This stir-fry was another winner of yours Kitten....I didn't change anything in this recipe and the flavors were simply delicious. I did use Japanese rice stick noodles which I really like versus just angel hair or spaghetti for stir fry but that is just my tastes. We had an excellent filling lunch. We both enjoyed this scrumptious meal. Once again thanks for sharing your great recipe Kitten!!
