• Red Onion (1 Small, Sliced)

• Tomatoes (2 Medium, Sliced to Wedges)

• Scallions (4, Ends Trimmed and Sliced into 2in Pieces)

• Garlic (3 Cloves, Minced)

• Ginger Root (1/2in Piece, Grated)

• Aji Amarillo (1 Tablespoon)

• Cilantro (1 Tablespoon, Minced)

• Rice

• Soy Sauce

• Apple Cider Vinegar

• Corn Starch

• Cumin

• Oregano

• Wok Pan

  • Using a Wok is crucial for this recipe; a normal pan won't achieve the same results due to its unique heat distribution and cooking properties.

STEPS:

• Marinate the Steak:

  • In a bowl, combine 2 tbsp soy sauce, ⅛ tsp ground cumin, ¼ tsp dried oregano, and 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar.

  • Add the sliced flank steak and let it marinate while you prepare the other ingredients.

• Heat the Pan:

  • Heat 1 tbsp of olive oil in a large wok pan over medium-high heat.

• Cook the Steak:

  • Add the marinated steak to the hot pan and fry until browned and seared, about 5-6 minutes.

  • Remove from the pan and set aside. Do not overcrowd the pan; cook in batches if necessary.

• Cook the Vegetables:

  • Heat another 1 tbsp of oil in the same pan.

  • Add the sliced red onion and cook for 2-5 minutes until softened. Remove and set aside.

  • Heat another 1 tbsp of oil and add the green onions. Sauté for 20-30 seconds.

  • Add the tomato wedges, minced garlic, and aji amarillo paste. Cook for another 2-5 minutes until the tomatoes release some of their juices but remain intact.

• Prepare the Stir Fry Sauce:

  • In a small bowl, mix 8 tbsp soy sauce, 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar, and 1 tsp corn starch.

• Combine Everything:

  • Add the stir fry sauce to the pan and stir to combine. Cook for about 1 minute.

  • Return the steak, accumulated juices, and cooked onions to the pan. Sprinkle over the minced fresh cilantro.

  • Toss gently to coat everything in the sauce.

• Serve:

  • Serve hot with steamed white rice. Optionally, you can stir fries into the sauce or serve them on the side.
