Serving the beef and vegetables over a bed of fluffy white rice is essential. The rice acts as a blank canvas, absorbing the flavors of the marinated beef and the stir-fried vegetables.

Each bite brings together the savory elements of the beef and the freshness of the vegetables, creating a harmonious blend that’s both comforting and fulfilling. The rice soaks up the juices, making it an integral part of the dish.
