INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Measure out 1 US tbsp (15 ml) of soy sauce, 1 US tbsp (15 ml) of dry sherry, and 2 US tbsp (30 ml) of sesame oil and pour them into a shallow bowl or dish. Peel and crush a large garlic clove and finely chop 1 tbsp (15 g) of fresh ginger. Add both to the mixture.  Stir the ingredients together thoroughly to evenly combine them. If you don’t have fresh ginger, feel free to substitute with 1 tsp of ginger paste. You can buy the paste in jars at most grocery stores. If you didn’t buy your sirloin pre-sliced, use a sharp knife to make thin slices with the grain of the meat. Arrange the sliced beef evenly on the bottom of the shallow dish holding the marinade. Cover the dish and place it in the fridge so the beef can soak up the flavors. If you have more time and prefer a stronger flavor, you can marinate the beef longer than 20 minutes. Don’t marinate it for longer than 24 hours, however. Place a large, heavy-based frying pan or wok over high heat until it heats up. Add 1 tbsp (15 g) of sesame seeds to the pan. Stir the seeds around every few minutes while they toast in the pan. Once the seeds have turned golden brown, tip them out onto a paper towel or clean plate. Set the toasted sesame seeds aside for now. Measure out 1 US tbsp (15 ml) of sunflower oil. Add it to a large frying pan or wok and place it on a burner. Turn the heat to high. Let the oil heat up until it shimmers. Take the marinated beef from the fridge. Remove the cover or plastic wrap from the shallow dish and use tongs to carefully place the beef slices into the hot oil. Drizzle the marinade that's left in the dish over the beef. Be sure to place the meat into the hot oil gently to prevent splashing. Stir the beef occasionally as it fries in the oil. Once the meat has browned evenly on all sides, use a slotted spoon to lift the slices out of the wok and onto a clean plate. Leave the juices and leftover marinade in the wok. Set the stir-fried beef aside for now. Cut 1 large carrot into matchsticks and add it to the hot wok. Stir-fry the carrots for about 2 minutes. Add 1/2 cup (100 g) of sliced mangetout and stir-fry them together for about 2 minutes. To cut matchsticks, cut a thin slice off of one side of the carrot. Place the carrot on the surface, cut side down. Cut the length of the carrot into slices that are 1⁄8 in (3.2 mm) thick. Stack the slices on top of each other and cut through all of them to create matchsticks. Carefully dump the beef slices back into the wok with the veggies. Slice the mushrooms and add those to the wok, as well. Stir the ingredients in the wok thoroughly so that everything is evenly combined. Measure out 3 US tbsp (44 ml) of your favorite hoisin sauce and drizzle it over the meat and veggies in the wok. Stir-fry everything together for about 60 seconds. Remove the wok from the heat. Beef stir-fry is best served hot, so plate the portions right away. If you like, serve the dish with your favorite Chinese noodles. Sprinkle the toasted sesame seeds on top of each serving and enjoy! If you have any leftovers, store them in an air-tight container in the fridge. Be sure to consume your leftovers within 3 days.

SUMMARY: Combine the soy sauce, sherry, oil, garlic, and ginger in a bowl. Add the beef to the mixture and let it marinate for at least 20 minutes.
