BEEF WITH RED AND GREEN PEPPERS CHINESE STYLE

Steps:

• Core and remove the seeds from the red and green peppers. Cut peppers into thin strips about 1 1/2 inches long.
• Slice the meat across the grain into thin strips 1 1/2 to 2 inches long. Place in a bowl and add the cornstarch, soy sauce and pepper flakes and 2 tablespoons of the oil. (The oil keeps the meat from sticking together while cooking.) Blend well and let stand 15 minutes.
• Heat the remaining oil in a wok or skillet large enough to hold the ingredients. When the oil is very hot add the meat and cook, stirring, about 30 seconds until separated. Drain the meat in a sieve over a bowl to catch the drippings and reserve the oil.
• Wipe out the wok and return 2 tablespoons of the oil to it. Heat the oil and add the peppers, scallions and garlic. Cook over high heat until crisp and tender, about 1 minute. Add the sugar, wine, chicken broth and salt if desired. Add the beef and cook quickly, stirring, until just heated through. Serve immediately.

Add beef to skillet; cook, tossing occasionally, until brown, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate with a slotted spoon.
• Reduce heat to medium. Add 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger and 3 stalks celery, sliced 1/2 inch thick diagonally; cook until celery is soft, about 4 minutes.
• Add 2 bunches watercress, trimmed and washed; toss until wilted, about 1 minute. Return beef with any juices to skillet; stir in 1 tablespoon toasted sesame oil, 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Serve hot over rice.
