Ingredients

Directions

  1. Partially freeze the beef steak for about 30 minutes to make it easier to slice thinly.
  2. Thinly slice the beef across the grain into bite-sized strips and set aside.
  3. Peel the potatoes, cut them in half, and slice them thinly.
  4. Cook the sliced potatoes in a pot of boiling water for about 5 minutes until just tender but not mushy.
  5. Drain the potatoes well and set aside.
  6. In a small bowl, stir together 1/2 cup beef broth, 2 teaspoons cornstarch, and 1/4 teaspoon salt until smooth.
  7. Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with nonstick spray or oil.
  8. Add 3/4 cup chopped onion and stir-fry for 2 minutes until slightly softened.
  9. Add 3/4 cup chopped green or red pepper and stir-fry for another 2 minutes until crisp-tender.
  10. Remove the vegetables from the wok and set aside on a plate.
  11. Add 1 tablespoon cooking or olive oil to the hot wok.
  12. Add the sliced beef, 1 teaspoon curry powder, and 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin.
  13. Stir-fry the beef for 2-3 minutes until browned and cooked through.
  14. Return the cooked vegetables and par-boiled potatoes to the wok with the beef.
  15. Add 1 medium coarsely chopped tomato and toss everything together for 1 minute.
  16. Give the broth mixture a quick stir to recombine and pour it over the ingredients in the wok.
  17. Stir constantly for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and coats all the ingredients.
  18. Serve immediately while hot.
