Ingredients

  • Chinakohl (Napa cabbage)
  • Beef (thinly sliced)
  • Carrots
  • Garlic (fresh)
  • Ginger (freshly grated)
  • Soy sauce
  • Sesame oil
  • Vegetable broth
  • Spring onions (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Prepare your ingredients: Begin by washing and slicing the Chinakohl into bite-sized pieces. Thinly slice the beef, carrots, and chop the garlic and ginger.
  2. Heat the pan: In a large skillet or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of sesame oil over medium-high heat. Make sure the oil is hot before adding the ingredients.
  3. Cook the beef: Add the sliced beef to the pan in a single layer. Cook for about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally, until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
  4. Sauté the aromatics: In the same pan, add a bit more oil if necessary, then toss in the garlic and ginger. Sauté for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add vegetables: Next, add the carrots and Chinakohl. Stir-fry for about 5 minutes until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crunchy.
  6. Combine ingredients: Return the cooked beef to the pan. Pour in the soy sauce and vegetable broth. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes to combine the flavors.
  7. Garnish and serve: Once everything is well mixed and heated through, remove from heat. Garnish with chopped spring onions before serving.
