I used runny hunny so didnt need to thin the honey, just marinaded the meat straight away. My husband asked after he darn near licked his plate if this was a zaar recipe, and if so give it 5 stars, Lucky I agreed! I added half a green capsicum and half a red one, also mushrooms. Delicious!!

    The flavor was excellent, but a little salty for my taste (husband LOVED it as is), so the next time I make this I'll be using lite soy sauce. Was out of honey, so substituted dark corn syrup instead. Didn't have any fresh stir fry-type vegetables, so used frozen (thawed so as not to reduce the heat too much in the pan). We WILL be making this one again. The recipe was very easy to follow and took very little time. After marinading the meat, the actual cooking time was only about 15 minutes.

    We tried this recipe tonight. It was tasty. I marinated the steak for the full 48 hours. It is worth doing. What I liked the most about this recipe was the subtle flavour sesame oil and the peanut which infuses the meat nicely.

    Good and easy! I didn't plan ahead so I didn't marinate the meat. I put together the marinade and just used it as the sauce at the end. I also used flour as my thickener instead of the cornstarch. I thought I had frozen stirfry veggies but I didn't so I used frozen peas and carrots instead. It worked out fine.

    MMMMMMM! This was so good! A bit of work, but totally worth it. I subbed corn syrup for the honey and veggie oil for the peanut oil. I also added a ton more veggies, so had to make another batch of sauce. SO good! Make sure you prep everything in advance. I will definitely make this again. Thanks for a great dinner!

    Steve, thanks for the simple stir fry recipe! I did find it a little salty as other reviewers stated, but I kind of like salty anyway. I also found that the meat and veggies were already so flavorful from the marinade that ended up in the pan that I did not need to use the left over marinade. The beef was very tender and could possibly lead to addiction. The kids (and I!) were stealing it from the pan as the veggies cooked!

    I only used the marinade part of the recipe, I added 2 Tbsp. rice wine vinegar to it and served the beef over couscous. It was very flavorful, tender meat. I'll be holding on to this one (-;

    I used a variation of this recipe with my selection of vegetables and beef. I didn't have the oils called for in the recipe and substituted canola and olive oil. I also used asparagus as a part of the vegetables, and it was delicious. The sauce was easy and very tasty. I plan to use this recipe again with different veggies and meat. Thanks for a great stir fry! Ernie's Bert
