Ingredients

- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 1 inch ginger
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 60 ml water
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 whole red bell pepper
- 2 stalks green onion
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
Directions
Step 1
Begin by mincing the garlic and grating the ginger. Set these aside.
Step 2
In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, brown sugar, and sesame oil.
Step 3
In another bowl, mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry and stir it into the soy sauce mixture. Set the sauce aside.
Step 4
Slice the red bell pepper thinly and chop the green onions. Set aside.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the vegetarian beef strips and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until they are browned and slightly crispy. Remove them from the skillet and set aside.
Step 6
In the same skillet, add the red bell pepper and stir-fry for about 2 minutes until they start to soften.
Step 7
Return the vegetarian beef strips to the skillet and pour over the soy-garlic sauce. Stir well to coat all the ingredients.
Step 8
Continue to cook for 3-4 minutes, allowing the sauce to thicken and the flavors to meld. Adjust the seasoning to taste if necessary.
Step 9
Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds before serving.
Step 10
Serve hot, ideally with steamed rice or noodles.
