Beef and Sweet Potato Stir-Fry

Recipe from canadianliving.com

I love sweet potato, and what a great idea to add it to a stir-fry! This dish would also be quite tasty with some toasted sesame seeds sprinkled on top.

What you'll need
2 tbsp Vegetable oil
454 g Beef stir-fry strips
1 Onion, sliced
3 Garlic cloves, minced
2 cups Cubed, peeled sweet potato
1 Green pepper, sliced
1/2 cup Beef stock
1/4 cup Oyster sauce
1 tbsp Cornstarch
1 tbsp Rice vinegar
1 tsp Sesame oil
2 Green onions, thinly sliced

How to
1.  In wok, or large skillet, heat 1 tbsp of the oil over high heat. Stir-fry beef until browned, but still pink inside, about 2 minutes. Transfer to plate.

2.  Drain fat from pan; add remaining oil. Stir-fry onion and garlic over medium heat until onion is softened, about 2 minutes.

3.  Stir sweet potato, green pepper, and 1/2 cup water into pan; cover and steam until sweet potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.

4.  Meanwhile, in a glass measuring cup, whisk together stock, oyster sauce, cornstarch, vinegar, and sesame oil. Return beef and any juices to pan.

5.  Add oyster sauce mixture and bring to a boil; boil, stirring, until thickened and glossy, about 1 minute. Sprinkle with green onions and serve with quinoa or rice.
