STIRFRY

You might want to do this in batches if you're working with asmall. You want the beef to sear not steam! Remove to a plate. Add another tspof oil if the pan is dry.
• Add the onions and sauce them for 1 min before addingremaining garlic and tomatoes. Continue to sauté for 1 min, then add the beefback for 1 min then add the beef back into the pan. you’d also add the Frenchfries here if you wanted to cook them with the sauce.
