Garlic Beef Tomato Stir-Fry

Instructions

1. 1

   Slice the beef into thin strips and place in a bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, cornstarch, and black pepper. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 15 minutes.

2. 2

   While the beef is marinating, dice the tomatoes into small cubes, mince the garlic, and wash the spinach thoroughly.

   Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until it's browned and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.

4. 4

   In the same pan, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil if needed, and sauté the minced garlic until fragrant, about 30 seconds.

5. 5

   Add the diced tomatoes and stir-fry for about 2 minutes, until the tomatoes start to soften.

6. 6

   Return the beef to the pan with the tomatoes and add the remaining tablespoon of soy sauce and sugar. Stir well to combine.

7. 7

   Add the spinach to the pan and cook until the spinach wilts, about 1-2 minutes. Season with salt to taste.

8. 8

   Serve the Garlic Beef Tomato Stir-Fry hot with steamed rice or noodles.
