It is probably not authentic to any cuisine, but it is good! 1/2 lb. Top round 2 zuchhini (small) 1 medium onion (California medium, that is) vegetable oil chili-sesame oil (available in oriental markets) soy sauce. Slice the meat thinly and cut into bite-size pieces. Marinate in soy sauce for about 30 minutes, if desired. Slice the zuchinni into rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Slice the onion into chop-stickable pieces. Don't get them too small. Heat a large frying pan or a wok over high heat. Add about a tablespoon of vegetable oil and a few drops (<1/2 tsp) chili-sesame oil. Drain the meat, reserving the marinade if any, and stir fry for about 2 minutes, or until the meat is evenly browned. Remove to a bowl. place another tablespoon of oil and another few drops of sesame oil into the pan. Add the onion, and stir fry for about 2 minutes, or until the onion starts turning transparent, but is still crunchy. Add the zuchinni, and stir-fry the zuchinni-onion mixture for about a minute. Add the meat back to the pan, and add 2 tablespoons of soy sauce. (If desired, take the reserved marinade, and the juices from the browned meat, mix in 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, and add to pan for a thicker sauce). Stir well for 15 seconds and serve with hot rice immediately, while the zuchinni are still crispy. Serves two.
