Fragrant Sirloin Stir-Fry

Submitted by Lennie

"The trick to a successful stir-fry is preparation. Here's a tip: before you go to bed, chop all veggies and refrigerate in sealed bags; the next night, dinner will go a lot quicker! Serve this dish with steamed rice or asian noodles."

This was very easy and very yummy. I think next time, I might not be quite so generous with the curry paste, though - the kids thought it was a bit too spicy. I subbed pork for the beef and it was still really good. This one's a keeper. Thanks Lennie !

This was spicy and interesting combo of flavors--the orange and the curry paste--and we loved it! Added some chopped basil and cilantro to the final minute of stir frying.

I made this tonight subbing venison tenderloin for the steak and loved it. Next time I will halve the recipe for just the 2 of us and cut back on the Thai red curry paste a bit. DH thought it was a bit too spicy but it was just right for me. Thanks for the easy recipe. It's great with Jasmine rice.
