Ingredients
1 lb lean round steak, cut 2" strips
2 tbsp lite soy sauce

2 tbsp dry sherry
1 dash crushed red pepper flakes
1 tsp peanut or canola oil
1 tbsp minced ginger

crushed red pepper flakes. Cover and refrigerate for 1 hour.
In a wok or heavy skillet, heat the canola or peanut oil. Add the beef and

onion and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add the red pepper and stir-fry for 2
minutes. Add the snow peas and stir-fry for 2 minutes.
Add the beef back to the wok and heat for 1 minute. Serve with additional

Comments: Ginger is one of those spices that tastes so much better when
you use it fresh. If for any reason you can't get it, substitute 2
teaspoons ground ginger. The peel of fresh ginger is so paper thin you can
just mince the ginger without peeling it. Add any other vegetables such
as broccoli, bean sprouts, bok choy, or carrots in place of the vegetables
listed here.
