Method

Step 1: Make the sauce

Combine all the sweet & spicy sauce ingredients together until homogenous. Set aside.

Step 2: Stir fry the vegetables

To cook, heat a wok (or a large fry pan) over high heat. Add a drizzle of neutral oil and the garlic and for 20 seconds.

Add the mushrooms and asparagus with a pinch of salt and for a couple of minutes. Set aside, and wipe the wok clean.

Step 3: Stir fry the steak

Heat the wok until smoking again and add oil to the pan.

Add steak cubes and let them on one side for a couple of minutes to brown the exterior. Toss and cook the other sides of the steak, then add the stir-fry sauce. Cook for another minute or so to let the sauce and glaze the steak.

Step 4: Assemble & serve

Add a serving of rice to a bowl, half of the vegetables, a sprinkle of toasted sesame seeds, and the steak. Add any additional toppings you may enjoy: scallions, mayo, stir fry sauce, and pickled ginger. Enjoy!
