    1      pound         Beef (round or chuck or pork -- loin) cut into fine 
                         strips -- 1/8 inch by 2 to
   -3                    inches long
    2      tablespoons   Dry sherry
    2      tablespoons   Hoisin sauce
    1      tablespoon    Black bean sauce
    1      tablespoon    Vinegar

 Heat oil in wok and stir-fry the green peppers, carrots, and scallion for 1-2
minutes. Push aside.
 Stir-fry the slivers of meat for 1 to 2 minutes and recombine with the
vegetables. Add the remaining ingredients. Stir and heat throughly. Serve at once
with boiled rice. Serves 4 I usually double the sauce ingredients because it
doesn't seem to be quite enough.
