Beef With Vegetables - cooking recipe

Ingredients

8 ounces beef filet, cut into 1/2 inch strips
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 onion, chopped

Preparation

In a large skillet over medium high heat, saute the beef slices in the oil for 5 minutes, or until well browned. Add the onion, garlic and ginger and saute for 5 more minutes. Then add the green bell pepper, carrot and beef broth. Reduce heat to low and let simmer.
