Comprehending all the different cuts of beef can be a little confusing. For example, did you know that a strip steak, New York strip, Kansas City steak, club steak, shell steak, and top loin steak all come from...
This turned out very well, an excellent stir-frt. We made a few changes to the recipe, used some sesame oil instead of lecithin and we didn't have any bamboo shoots. We also added some chopped fresh mushrooms before we added the cauliflower and used beer instead of wine. The flavor was combination was excellent. Next time will add some whole dried chili peppers to give it a bit more kick. We served it over brown rice and could hardly stop eating it. Well worth all the effort to chop up all the veggies and make sure everything was prepped before starting the cooking process.
