THAI BEEF STIR-FRY
A distinctive peanut sauce complements this colorful combination of tender sirloin strips, cauliflower, carrots, broccoli and mushrooms. I like to dish it up over spaghetti, but you could use fried noodles instead. -Janice Fehr, Austin, Manitoba

THAI STIR-FRY BEEF CURRY
After having my first and most delicious Thai meal, I was on the hunt for recipes to make at home. I found this recipe in a beautiful book called, appropriately, "Beautiful Thailand". As with all curry dishes you will want to adjust the heat to your tastes. I find 1 tablespoon of curry paste to be more than sufficient to clear a sinus cold so you may want to start with 1/2 tablespoon. Have fun!

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of beef: For a stir-fry, you want a tender cut of beef that will cook quickly. Flank steak, skirt steak, and tenderloin are all good choices.
- Slice the beef thinly against the grain: This will help the beef cook evenly and prevent it from becoming tough.
- Marinate the beef: Marinating the beef in a flavorful sauce will help to tenderize it and add flavor.
- Use a hot wok or skillet: A hot wok or skillet will help to sear the beef and prevent it from sticking.
- Add the beef to the wok or skillet in batches: Don't overcrowd the wok or skillet, or the beef will not cook evenly.
- Stir-fry the beef until it is cooked through: The beef should be cooked through but still slightly pink in the center.
- Add the vegetables and sauce: Add the vegetables and sauce to the wok or skillet and stir-fry until the vegetables are tender and the sauce is heated through.
- Serve the stir-fry over rice or noodles: Serve the stir-fry over rice or noodles and enjoy!
