Ingredients:
8 oz lean sirloin beef
3 Tbsp low-sodium soy sauce
1 tsp cornstarch
2 tsp vegetable oil
2 medium scallion(s), chopped
3 medium garlic clove(s), minced
2 Tbsp sherry cooking wine

1/2 cup hoisin sauce

Directions:

Place beef in a medium bowl. Add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and cornstarch; stir to coat.

Heat oil in large skillet or wok. Add scallions and garlic; sauté 1 minute. Add beef and cook until browned, about 2 minutes. Add remaining soy sauce and sherry; cook 1 minute more.

Add cabbage, bamboo shoots and mushrooms. Sauté until vegetables are browned, about 5 minutes. Stir in egg white and cook 2 minutes more.
