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!
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
Directions:
1. Slice the beef as thinly as possible. I recommend freezing briefly before slicing; the colder the easier to thin slice.
2. Heat oil on med-hi heat.
3. Brown beef in Wok for 1 minute.
4. Slice 4 very thin pieces of the fresh pear and set aside for garnish.
5. Add Pear, Scallions, Garlic, Soy Sauce, Honey, Curry, and Sesame Seeds.
6. Stir-fry until golden, about 2-3 minutes or until fresh pear is soft.
7. Garnish with pear and serve with steamed basmati rice.
