Notes
To enhance the flavor of this dish, consider marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, ginger, and garlic for 15 minutes before cooking. This will infuse the meat with additional flavor and tenderness. Adjust the level of spice by increasing or decreasing the amount of sriracha sauce to suit your preference. Feel free to experiment with different vegetables based on what you have on hand to add more variety and color to the dish.
