Recipe: Kate's Farm to Table Stir Fry (using round steak, cabbage and broccoli)

FARM TO TABLE STIR FRY

"I came up with this recipe on my own out of pure necessity! I wanted to know how to make a delicious stir fry but never found a recipe I liked. One day, in the middle of the summer, when fresh beautiful produce was aplenty, I decided to experiment. I started by combining the oil and soy sauce together and was really just winging it. At some point, Cara came into the kitchen. She saw what I was making and said, "That needs sesame seeds" and kept walking. I added Cara's magical ingredient and our stir fry was born! I made the dish three times that week. We just couldn't get enough of it."



1/2 cup soy sauce
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon sesame oil
1 1/2 pounds round steak, sliced thin
1 quart snow peas
1/2 head cabbage, slivered
1/2 bag baby carrots, quartered lengthwise
1 head broccoli, florets and stems, chopped small
8 scallions, whites and greens, chopped coarsely
1 red and 1 green pepper, sliced lengthwise
3 teaspoons sesame seeds
3 to 4 garlic cloves, minced
2 to 3 cups hot cooked brown or white rice (for serving)

Mix the soy sauce, brown sugar, olive oil, and sesame oil together. Toss the mixture with the steak and saute for 3 to 4 minutes.

Add all of the vegetables to the pan and saute, turning occasionally until the vegetables are steamed but still firm in texture.

Add the sesame seeds and garlic and cook for 3 to 5 more minutes.

Serve over rice.

Makes 8-10 servings
