Ingredients

Instructions

  1. 1Boil the mushrooms
    Prepared mushrooms being poured from a white plate into a pot of boiling water.

    Pour water into the pot and bring it to a boil, then place the prepared mushrooms into the boiling water to cook them thoroughly.

    Tip: Ensure the water is at a rolling boil before adding the mushrooms.
  2. 2Add vegetables to the pot
    Red and green pepper slices and bok choy boiling together with mushrooms in a pot.

    After the mushrooms have cooked in the boiling water, add red peppers, green peppers, and bok choy into the pot to cook alongside them.

    Tip: Add the vegetables quickly so they cook evenly with the mushrooms.
  3. 3Scoop out the ingredients
    A ladle scooping out cooked bok choy, peppers, and mushrooms from boiling water.

    Once the mushrooms, peppers, and bok choy are fully cooked, use a ladle to scoop them out of the pot and set them aside for later use.

    Tip: Drain excess water from the ladle when removing the vegetables.
  4. 4Stir-fry the chopped meat
    Chopped meat being added to hot oil in a pan using a wooden spatula.

    Pour cooking oil into a separate pan, add the chopped meat, and stir well to begin cooking the meat in the hot oil.

    Tip: Make sure the oil is hot before adding the meat to sear it properly.
  5. 5Season the meat

    Add minced onion, minced garlic, salt, and your choice of seasonings directly to the meat in the pan, and stir well to combine.

    Tip: Stir continuously to evenly distribute the seasonings and aromatics.
  6. 6Combine everything in the pan
    A finished stir-fry of mixed mushrooms, peppers, bok choy, and meat served on a white plate.

    Return the cooked peppers, bok choy, and mushrooms back into the pan with the seasoned meat, and stir-fry them together thoroughly.

    Tip: Toss the mixture well so the vegetables absorb the savory flavors from the meat.
