Thai Red Curry with Beef - Serves 4

From: Men's Health

Ingredients
2 Tbsp vegetable oil (preferably peanut)
1 lb steak (round, loin, or flank), cut into 1/2-inch-wide strips
1 large shallot, chopped
1 Tbsp minced fresh ginger
1 Tbsp Thai red curry paste
1 can (13.5 oz) light coconut milk
1 tsp grated lime zest
1 Tbsp fish sauce
1 medium sweet potato, peeled and diced
Juice of 1/2 lime
Cooked brown rice, for serving
Chopped cilantro, for serving
1/3 cup unsalted roasted cashews (optional)

Directions
Heat a wok or skillet on medium high. When it's hot, add 1 tablespoon of oil and swirl to coat the pan. Add the beef and sear it until browned, tossing occasionally, 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer the beef and its juices to a plate.

Return the wok to medium heat and swirl in 1 tablespoon of oil. Add the shallot and ginger; stir-fry for 3 minutes. Stir in the curry paste and heat for 30 seconds. Stir in the coconut milk, lime zest, and fish sauce; heat for 2 minutes.

Add the sweet potatoes to the wok and bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce it to a simmer, cover, and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in the lime juice and the beef and heat through. Serve over rice and garnish with cilantro and cashews.
