XP: quick easy stir fry

I posted this on 2nd tri but thought some of the ladies here might be interested in it as well, just in case you do not go to the tri board.

• Beef Stir Fry with Noodles
• 1/4 lb. ramen noodles, flavor packet discarded
• 3 Tbs. soy sauce
• 1 Tbs. cornstarch
• 1 tsp. sugar
• 1 lb. boneless sirloin steak, thinly sliced across the grain
• 1 tsp. vegetable oil
• 1 tsp. Asian sesame oil
• 2 tsp. fresh ginger, minced
• 1 clove garlic, crushed
• 1 cup scallions, chopped
• 1/4 lb. mushrooms, chopped
• 3/4 lb. frozen chopped spinach, thawed and drained, or fresh, chopped

Cook ramen noodles in a large pot of boiling salted water 3-4 minutes or until al dente. Drain thoroughly. Set aside and keep warm. Combine next 3 ingredients in a jar with a tight-fitting lid. Shake vigorously. Place sliced beef in a mixing bowl. Pour soy sauce mixture over beef and toss to coat. Heat vegetable and sesame oil in a wok or heavy nonstick skillet over high heat. Stir-fry ginger and garlic about 45 seconds. Add beef and marinade and stir-fry about 2 minutes or until beef begins to brown. Add scallions and mushrooms and stir-fry about 2 minutes or until scallions are softened. Add spinach and stir-fry another 45 seconds. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve over noodles with additional soy sauce if desired.

Also if you want a tastier option and are not a fan of noodles, I make the birdseye steamfresh rice w/mixed vegetables per the instructions on the bag.  Once the beef and stuff is done put that in a seperate bowl/dish.  Add a little more vegetable oil and soy sauce.  Fry up the rice for a couple seconds.
