The active cooking time in your wok or pan is less than 15 minutes before it’s ready to be served with steamed white rice.
Best Cut of Beef for Stir-fry Avoid any “pre-cut beef for stir-fry” that your grocery store sells.It usually looks like long rectangular beef sticks, cut from lean beef.These are too thick and chunky, and generally turn out tough.
So what IS the best cut of beef for stir-fry? Flank steak: We prefer flank steak for our beef stir-fry recipes like this one and Beef and Broccoli.Flank steak is both tender (as long as you cut it against the grain) and has a nice beefy flavor.The one downside is that it can be expensive.London Broil: For a lower-priced option, London Broil (also known as top round steak or top round roast) is easy to slice and economical, but be aware—it is quite lean, which means it will be a bit drier and need a longer time to marinate/tenderize.Chuck Steak or Roast: This is probably the cheapest cut you can use.
