Don't tell me to break a leg....
Thai Stir-fry
Got a cut of sirloin on sale at shop-rite, cubed, lots of paprika, some of this "spicy" oil that I picked up, some soy and pepper....let it sit while I threw some Jasmine rice into my new pot.
stir fried the beef up with some red and green peppers, chilies, shitake mushrooms, garlic, and shallot, with more soy, and a little fish sauce and I threw some basil in at the end.
The pot worked great for rice....first time I cooked rice where it was this great....perfect stickyness and taste.
