This recipe was left to me by my mother.2 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 minced garlic cloves
¼ cup chopped onion
2 teaspoons salt
Fresh ground pepper
¼ pound snow peas, stems removed
½ medium cauliflower head, broken into flowerets
1 cup chicken broth
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 pound very thin sliced flank steak
¼ cup soy sauce
Cut steak into 2" strips, mix cornstarch and soy sauce
and set aside. Heat chicken stock and set aside. Heat
oil in heavy skillet or wok until very hot. Add garlic
and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add beef and saute quickly,
keeping it moving, just until it loses colour, about 30
seconds.
Add onion, salt and pepper to taste, stirring constantly
for another half minute or so. Add chicken broth, bring
quickly to the boil, then add cauliflower pieces, a few
at a time. Cook 3 minutes, then add snow peas, stirring
constantly, for another few minutes. After 7 minutes
maximum, cauliflower should be tender and pea pods a
bright green. Add soy sauce mixture, mix thoroughly,
and stir until thickened. Turn into heavy serving dish
and serve immediately.
