Notes
Type of steak: Any kind of frying steak is OK. You can buy it in strips or slice it yourself. Flank steak or sirloin steak work really well. Rump steak is also fine.
Cutting the steak: When you cut the steak into thin strips it’s really quite important to cut AGAINST the grain. This just means that you look for the lines that run along the meat and instead of cutting in the same direction, you cut across them.
This helps the steak to be tender instead of chewy, because essentially we’re cutting across muscle fibres and breaking them down into much smaller sections. (There's a photo demonstrating this in the post above.)
Vegetables - Really you can use up any vegetables you have for this. Green works really well with steak, but whatever you have in the fridge will also be good. Mangetout is usually called snowpeas in the US.
Spring onions: These are called scallions/green onions in the US.
Saltiness: If you don’t like your food too salty, make sure you use reduced sodium soy sauce or reduce the amount you use.
