How to make Beef and vegetable sauce

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Wash the meat to remove blood and cut against the grain into 2-inch diagonal strips.

  2. Step 2

    Marinate the meat with the Knorr Cube, Beef seasoning, Garlic Powder, and Corn Starch. Leave to marinate for at least an hour or overnight for maximum flavor.

  3. Step 3

    Add the marinated beef into the pan, stir and fry until cooked, about 2-3 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the beef from the pan, discard the oil, and add another 2 tablespoons of oil. When hot, add the onions and sauté for 2 minutes.

  5. Step 5

    Add the sliced peppers and sauté for another 2 minutes. Then, add the mushrooms and sauté for a minute.

  6. Step 6

    Add the mixed sauce and let it simmer for 1 minute.

FAQS

  1. What is the best way to marinate beef for a flavorful beef and vegetable sauce?

    To achieve maximum flavor in your beef and vegetable sauce, marinate the beef with a Knorr Chicken Cube, beef seasoning, garlic powder, and corn starch for at least an hour, or ideally overnight. This allows the flavors to penetrate the meat, making it tender and delicious.

  2. Can I make a gluten-free version of this beef and vegetable sauce?

    Yes, you can easily make this beef and vegetable sauce gluten-free by substituting soy sauce with tamari or a gluten-free soy sauce alternative. Additionally, ensure that the oyster sauce you use is gluten-free, as some brands may contain wheat.

    You can customize the beef and vegetable sauce by substituting the vegetables based on your preference or what you have on hand. Good alternatives include broccoli, snap peas, carrots, or zucchini. Just make sure to adjust the cooking time based on the vegetables you choose.

  4. How should I store leftover beef and vegetable sauce?

    To store leftover beef and vegetable sauce, let it cool completely before transferring it to an airtight container. It can be refrigerated for up to 3-4 days. For longer storage, consider freezing it in a freezer-safe container for up to 3 months. When ready to eat, simply reheat on the stove or in the microwave.

  5. What are some good side dishes to serve with beef and vegetable sauce?
