Sweet glazed beef and vegetable stir fry

1/2 lb steak or roast, cut into thin strips
2 T oil
1/2 c sliced carrots
1/4 c broccoli florets
1 onion, chopped
4 t cornstarch
2-3 T brown sugar
1/2 t ginger
1/2 t chili powder
1/2 t garlic salt
1/4 t pepper
3/4 c beef broth (or water + bouillon)
2 servings of spaghetti, cooked according to package instructions

1. Fry meat in oil for 3-5 minutes, then add carrots, broccoli, and onion. Fry 8-10 more minutes, until meat is done and vegetables are to desired tenderness.

2. In bowl, whisk together cornstarch, sugar, broth, and seasonings.

3. When meat and vegetables are done, add broth mixture and bring to a boil, stirring constantly until thickened.

4. Add spaghetti and stir to coat.

I created this stir fry recipe because these are the ingredients we usually have on hand, and I like sweet stir frys. It's one of my favorites! I also like to make it with leftover steak or roast; just skip frying the meat with the oil, and add the meat, oil, and vegetables all at once. My rating: 9/10
