# What You’ll Need to Make This:

→ Main Components

01 - 450 g beef flank steak, sirloin, or ribeye, thinly sliced against the grain
02 - 1 bell pepper, thinly sliced
03 - 100 g broccoli florets
04 - 1 carrot, julienned
05 - 75 g snap peas, ends trimmed
06 - 2 green onions, chopped

→ Sauce and Flavorings

07 - 2 tablespoons soy sauce
08 - 1 tablespoon hoisin sauce
09 - 1 tablespoon sesame oil
10 - 1 tablespoon honey
11 - 2 garlic cloves, minced
12 - 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, grated

→ Cooking Essentials and Garnish

13 - 2 tablespoons vegetable oil, divided, for stir-frying
14 - 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, optional
15 - Steamed rice, optional, for serving

# How to Prepare:

01 - Thinly slice beef against the grain for optimal tenderness. Optionally, marinate beef in soy sauce, minced garlic, and grated ginger for 15 to 30 minutes to enhance flavor.
02 - In a small mixing bowl, combine soy sauce, hoisin sauce, sesame oil, honey, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Whisk thoroughly and set aside.
03 - Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add beef slices in a single layer and sear for 2 to 3 minutes without stirring to form a crisp crust. Remove beef from the pan and reserve.
04 - Add remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil to the pan. Introduce julienned carrot, sliced bell pepper, and broccoli florets. Stir-fry for 3 to 5 minutes, until vegetables are slightly tender but still vibrant.
05 - Add trimmed snap peas to the pan and continue stir-frying for an additional 2 to 3 minutes.
06 - Return seared beef to the vegetables. Pour prepared sauce over ingredients and toss well to evenly coat. Allow mixture to cook for 1 to 2 minutes until sauce thickens slightly.
07 - Remove from heat. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately over steamed rice or as is.

# Extra Tips:

01 - Slicing beef against the grain ensures tenderness in each bite.
02 - Do not overcook the vegetables to preserve color and crunch.
