This classic Vietnamese dish gets its name from the vigorous shaking required to get a good sear on each tender cube of wok-fired beef. Chef Nora’s version starts with flavorful sirloin tips marinated in a dark, garlicky, umami-rich soy sauce blend, stir-fried with sweet peppers and onions, and served with a bright lime, tamarind, Thai chili, and cilantro sauce for drizzling. On the side: Fluffy tomato rice topped with crunchy fried shallots and more fresh cilantro. It’s a little bit sweet, a little bit salty, and all delicious.
