Instructions
- 1Rinse the brown rice and cook it in salted water for about 25 minutes, or until tender. Drain and keep covered.
- 2Cut the beef round into very thin strips across the grain (this ensures tenderness). In a small bowl, mix the soy sauce, honey, water, pepper, and cornstarch.
- 3Blanch the green beans in boiling water for 3 minutes, then drain and rinse with cold water to preserve their color and crunch.
- 4Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a hot wok or pan over high heat. Add the beef strips and quickly cook for 2–3 minutes until browned but still juicy. Remove the meat from the pan.
- 5In the same pan, add the remaining oil, garlic, ginger, and paprika. Sauté for 1 minute, then return the meat and add the green beans. Pour in the prepared sauce and stir for another 1–2 minutes, until the sauce thickens and coats the ingredients.
- 6Serve the dish over a bed of brown rice. Garnish with sesame seeds or sliced spring onion, if desired.
