  • Have everything ready to go before you start cooking the stir-fry. Put 2 Tablespoons of water in a small bowl next to the stove and a lid for your skillet.

  • Heat the skillet over medium-high heat for 2 minutes. Add 2 Tablespoons of the coconut oil. Place the sirloin in a single layer in the pan. Brown for one minute. Flip the beef and cook on the other side. I had too much beef in my pan and I did not get the browning that I would have liked, you may want to do this in two batches. Take the beef out of the skillet and set aside.

  • Your pan should now be empty. Add the other Tablespoon of coconut oil to the pan. Add the broccoli and carrots. Stir for 1 minute. Add the water and cover the skillet with the lid for about 30 seconds.

  • This is the kind of coconut oil that I use. Make sure that when you buy coconut oil that it is unrefined and centrifuged. One of the best things about this book was introducing me to coconut oil. It can be used over fairly high heat making it good (and healthy) to cook with. When you open the jar, it has the sweet aroma of coconut, but I cannot taste it when I have cooked with it.
