Ingredients

Directions

  1. Pour the coconut milk into a large pot or wok and heat over medium-high heat until it begins to bubble and the oil starts to separate.

  3. Add the bite-sized sirloin steak pieces to the pot and stir until the beef is no longer pink and is cooked through.
  4. Add the chopped zucchini, sliced jalapeno, fish sauce, and torn makrood leaves to the pot.
  5. Stir gently to combine all ingredients and simmer for 2-3 minutes until the zucchini is tender but still crisp.
  6. Remove the pot from heat and immediately stir in the fresh basil leaves and chopped green onions.
  7. Serve hot over steamed jasmine rice.
