Beef Bean Sprouts Recipes

BEEF AND BEAN SPROUT STIR FRY

Steps:

• Cut up your beef. Set aside.
• Rinse your bean sprouts well. Set aside.
• Take out a large saute pan or wok. Spray with non stick spray. Turn on medium-high heat and drizzle some olive oil in pan. Once the oil heats up slightly you want to toss in your beef. Now turn heat down to medium. Cook until the beef is browned. Depending on the size you've cut it, the amount you've used and how hot you have your stove, this should only take about 4 to 5 minutes.
• Add 1/2 the stir-fry sauce and stir to coat.
• Now toss in your bean sprouts and let them cook until tender and almost limp. This will take another 3 to 4 minutes. I like mine to become almost noodle like in texture. No crisp left in them. But if you like crisp you just cook for less time.
• Now add the other half of your stir-fry sauce and stir until everything comes together.
• Salt and pepper to taste.
• Optional step: If you want a thicker broth or juice to it take your cornstarch and pop it in a mason jar with a little bit of water. Place the lid on and give it a good shake. Now take your stir-fry (once it's almost done) and slide it all over to one side of the pan with a spatula. Slightly tip your pan in the opposite direction and all the juice will run down. Pour the corn starch mixture in there and let it boil up while you stir. Then mix it into the stir-fry and let it simmer for a few minutes. Voila, thicker broth.

Steps:

ASIAN PASTA SALAD WITH BEEF, BROCCOLI AND BEAN SPROUTS

Steps:

• Mix garlic, soy sauce, vinegar, sugar, sesame oil, ginger, and pepper flakes in a 2-cup Pyrex measuring cup. Whisk in mayonnaise until smooth, then in a slow steady stream, whisk in oil to make an emulsified dressing; keep chilled until ready to toss with salad. Store in a clean jar with lid.
• Bring 1 gallon of water and 2 tablespoons of salt to boil in a large soup kettle. Add pasta and, using package times as a guide, boil, stirring frequently and adding broccoli the last 1 minute, until just tender. Drain thoroughly (do not rinse) and dump onto a large, lipped cookie sheet. Set aside while preparing remaining salad ingredients.
• Place all salad ingredients (except soy-ginger dressing) in a large bowl or transfer to a gallon-size zipper bag. (Can be covered and refrigerated several hours at this point). When ready to serve, add dressing; toss to coat and serve.
