This is Cambodian Sesame Pear Beef in Red Curry, adapted from the Sala Bai Hotel School recipe for Stir-fried Beef with Red Chili Powder. Delicious!
Hands-Free Mode Off
Equipment
Wok, knife, cutting board
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons sesame oil
- 3/4 lb beef eye round, very thinly sliced
- 1 Anjou pear, peeled and sliced
- 1 (10 ounce) can pears in heavy syrup
- 6 scallions, 1-inch slices
- 5 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 2 teaspoons red curry powder (Khmer Curry)
- 2 red chilies
- 2 teaspoons sesame seeds
Instructions
Slice the beef as thinly as possible. I recommend freezing briefly before slicing; the colder the easier to thin slice.
Heat oil on med-hi heat.
Brown beef in Wok for 1 minute.
Slice 4 very thin pieces of the fresh pear and set aside for garnish.
Add Pear, Scallions, Garlic, Soy Sauce, Honey, Curry, and Sesame Seeds.
Stir-fry until golden, about 2-3 minutes or until fresh pear is soft.
Garnish with pear and serve with steamed basmati rice.
