How to Choose Fresh Ingredients
How to Choose Beef
- Choose beef that is bright red with white streaks of fat and light yellow fat. The meat should be tender, not too tough.
- When pressed, it should feel elastic, not sticky, and have no strange odor.
- Avoid buying meat that looks greenish, has dark yellow fat, or shows signs of parasites.
How to Choose Bell Peppers
- Prefer bell peppers with a bottom divided into three sections, as they will be crisper and more aromatic when stir-fried.
- Choose peppers with a smooth, shiny surface, round shape, and intact stem.
- Avoid peppers that are bruised, wrinkled, or have wilted stems.
Steps to Follow
1. Prepare the Ingredients
Rinse the bell peppers, remove all seeds, and cut into bite-sized squares about 1.5 finger lengths. Peel the onion, cut it in half, and slice into similar-sized squares.
