20 20 40

Ingredients

  • 1 pound beef top sirloin steak, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons canola oil, divided
  • 1 can (13.66 ounces) coconut milk, divided
  • 1 tablespoon red curry paste
  • 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons fish or soy sauce
  • 8 cups chopped bok choy
  • 1 small sweet red pepper, sliced
  • 1/2 cup salted cashews
  • 1/2 cup minced fresh cilantro
  • Hot cooked brown rice

Directions

  • In a large skillet, saute beef in 1 tablespoon oil until no longer pink. Remove from skillet and set aside.
  • Spoon 1/2 cup cream from top of coconut milk and place in the pan. Add remaining oil; bring to a boil. Add curry paste; cook and stir for 5 minutes or until oil separates from coconut milk mixture.
  • Stir in the brown sugar, fish sauce and remaining coconut milk. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. Add bok choy and red pepper; return to a boil. Cook and stir 2-3 minutes longer or until vegetables are tender.
  • Stir in the cashews, cilantro and beef; heat through. Serve with rice. Yield: 5 servings.

    Editor's Note: This recipe was tested with regular (full-fat) coconut milk. Light coconut milk contains less cream.

My husband and I really enjoyed this! We felt the flavor combination was quite good, although we will probably increase the curry for our taste.

I made the recipe exactly as it is stated and it was good. I think for my taste, I'll add a little more red curry paste next time as I really didn't get any of the heat when I ate it. I would also like to try it with chicken...think that would taste yummy, too! What fun to be able to use bok choi from our local farmer's market to make this yummy dish!

My whole family loved this. We were pleasantly surpirsed at how flavorful this dish was. It was easy to make, the only change I made was to use light coconut milk. We will definately be making this again.

Who would have thought such a wonderful chinese recipe would come from the East side. I can understand this, as the best Chinese restaurant I ever ate at was in East Grand Forks. This recipe was so yummie and filling too. My only suggestion to make it easier, is make it in a wok.
