  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 1 tsp crushed red pepper flakes (optional, for spice lovers)

🥢 Instructions:

  1. Slice It Up!
    Grab your beef and slice it thin AF. Toss it in a bowl with 1 tbsp of soy sauce and half the cornstarch slurry. Let it chill for like 10-15 minutes while you prep everything else.

  1. Heat Things Up 🔥
    Heat 1 tbsp of oil in a big ol’ skillet or wok on medium-high. When it’s hot (like sizzling), toss in your beef. Stir-fry it for about 2-3 minutes until it’s browned but not fully cooked. Take it out and set aside.

  1. Aromatics = Magic
    Add another tbsp of oil to the skillet. Throw in the onions and garlic. Stir like your life depends on it for 1-2 minutes until the onions start to soften.

  1. Flavor Bomb 💣
    Sprinkle in the cumin and red pepper flakes. Let the spices toast for about 30 seconds—it’s gonna smell amazing!
  2. Bring It Together
    Toss the beef back in with the onions. Pour in the rest of the soy sauce, the sugar, and the cornstarch slurry. Stir-fry everything for another 2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats all that goodness.

  1. Garnish & Serve
    Throw on some green onions or cilantro if you’re feeling fancy. Serve it hot over rice or noodles, and watch everyone ask for seconds.


💡 Pro Tip:

Wanna make it extra fire? Add a squeeze of lime juice or a drizzle of chili oil before serving. You’re welcome.
