Beef should be cut into very thin strips, approximately 2" x 4-1/2".

Mix the Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil, soy sauce, sugar, cayenne pepper and toss with beef – marinate and let stand.

Peel cucumber, if desired, and cut in half length-wise, then cut in about 1/8" slices. Heat wok or large skillet, coat with Colavita Extra Virgin Olive Oil and stir fry beef briskly on high heat. When cooked in a couple of minutes add cucumber and mushrooms, cook until crisp. Garnish with sesame seeds before serving with steamed rice of your choice.
