Asian stir fry sauces with veggies and meat is always a good to go with rice and noodles and its our favourite too. I had this kind of stir fry for the first time from the Chinese restaurant here in NewZealand.

The meat is marinated with the sauces and a gravy sauce is prepared with spices and sauces and the meat and veggies are tossed in this gravy till a desired consistency is reached.

In this recipe I have used beef strips ( thin cuts ); cut from a rump steak piece. Let’s checkout the detailed recipe below.
