Can easily be vegetarian.
Cut the flank steak into thin strips (I usually do this by taking the rolled flank steak and cutting off a slice all the way through and then unrolling it and sometimes slicing the strip in half the long way, and then cutting it in pieces about 2 inches long. Set aside.
Cut the other vegetables as indicated above. The onions and peppers take about the same time to cook, so they can be combined and set aside. The asparagus takes less time to cook so keep it separate.
Broccoli can be cut in florets and substituted for the asparagus if you choose. Obviously other vegetables can also be substituted too if you''re feeling creative or you want to use what''s in the fridge.
Mix the soy sauce, sherry, wine, and corn starch. Start mixing just a little of the liquid with the corn starch first to avoid lumps, and then add more liquid, a little at a time at first. You can add another tablespoon of corn starch depending on how thick you want the sauce. Quite frankly I kinda guess on this.
Use a large fry pan or wok.
Heat oil and saute onions and peppers. Best if done a little on the hot side to sear vegies, but don't burn and don't make too soggy. Take out of pan and do asparagus, but not very long. Remove from pan and do same with the meat. Be careful about cooking it--just enough to brown a little on the outside,stiring; it will stay more tender if you only don't overcook it. At this stage everything can be set aside until you're getting close to serving.
When you are getting close to ready to serve, put the onions and peppers back in the pan on low to medium heat, stirring. Add the sauce mixture and it should thicken. When it's starting to boil and has thickened somewhat, add the asparagus and beef and stir util heated through. Check to make sure meat is cooked to desired degree (I like it at least a little red in the middle).
Serve over cooked rice or rice noodles. Sprinkle on top with cashews if desired.
