Ginger Beef Stir Fry

This ginger beef stir fry recipe is quick and easy. This can be prepared for your family for lunch. This recipe recommends the use of either beef tenderloin or sirloin because these cuts are the already tender, which means less cooking time. This is what stir fry is all about.

I like this recipe because it is straightforward. The dish has an oriental taste that can be best complimented with white rice. You can also refer to our simple beef stir fry for other options.

I suggest that you slice the beef as thin as possible if you want it tender and if you want to cook it faster. I also understand that some of you will try this recipe using other tougher cuts of beef. In anticipation on this possibility, try to add water to the beef and simmer it for at least 30 minutes so that it will be tender. It will not be a real stir-fry though, but at least you will enjoy the same good tasting dish with a meat that is not hard to chew.
