Thai Style Stir Fried Beef
With Thai food I guess you won’t be wrong as most of them taste really good, I might be a bit biased here as I like Asian as well as spicy dishes but who does not. I guess another reason for me loving their dishes is that most of their dishes are nearly the same as the Philippine native dishes (not the Spanish inspired ones) and the only difference is the chillies that they add, so my taste buds just naturally agrees what I am feeding them. I remember when I went for a vacation before in Thailand I was surprised with what the street vendors are selling as they are nearly the same stuff we see in the streets of Metro Manila, things such as raw mango in salt but in Thailand it’s with chilli salt, chargrilled dried squid in vinegar dip but in Thailand its chargrilled with a very hot and spicy coating, tamarind candy which we dip usually in sugar but in Thailand they dip it in sugar with chilli, the list goes on; even in McDonalds or Burger King instead of catsup they serve everything with a chilli sauce condiment.
For this post since most of the Asian stir fries nearly taste alike I will make this dish Thai inspired to be different, so I will be using dried chillies and Thai Sweet Chill sauce as the base. A really quick and easy dish to make which will be ready before your rice cooks!

Yes, yes and more yes Raymund. I simply love Thai food and had a glorious time when I was in Thailand last month.
My husband is dying for us to try Thai food. I don’t know that I’ve ever eat it, but if it’s anything like this I’m going to love it!
Its so easy, I have to try this! It seems that Thailand is my place to be, I adore chilli! Have a great week Reymund!
Looks wonderful and I agree bring on the spicy.
Mmm, this sounds really good! Working on a rendition of your Chicken Teriyaki that I am posting tomorrow, it turned out really good.

I love thai food. When I went to Thailand there was really no lack of tasty options.
I really love the use of baby corn in the dish with the beef – the colors of all of the vegetables are so pretty. Plus it’s spicy and I love spicy food!
I’ve never used ginger paste before, it sounds like an easy way to add the flavor!

This captures what is surely one of the highlights of stir-fries: lots of beautiful color and texture!

Quick dinner, especially a stir fry full of veg, is always on the top of my list.
