I'm looking for a good stir fry recipe... any suggestions?!
I'm broke until next Friday, so I need to work with what I have!.
What I do have
- A wide assortment of beef cuts
- A wide variety of spices and herbs (All bottled, no fresh)
- 1 package of frozen stirfry veggies
- Soy Sauce
- 1 onion
- Rice and/or egg noodles
- Beef bouillon
- Vegetable oil
I have a bunch of other things in the cabinet, but not sure what would be used in stir fry or not!. I found 2 recipes in my Betty Crocker Cookbook, but they each had a few ingredients that I don't have!. Both called for cornstarch, which I don't have!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Throw the vegies in there!. and then you put some teryoki (is that how you spell it!? lol) sauce in there!. GODLY!.
