I made this for dinner for some friends last evening. It got such rave reviews, I though I'd post the recipe. BEEF & ZUCCHINI STIR FRY Feeds 4 very hungry adults. 3 med onions (or 2 large) 10 oz (dry) noodles 3 or 4 cloves garlic grated Parmesan cheese 2 thin slices gingerroot 1 1/2 lbs ground beef 3/4 lbs zucchini 2 medium tomatoes 1/2 lb mushrooms 1/4 cup soy sauce peanut oil Cut each onion in quarters from root to stem. Then slice about 1/4-inch thick. Peel and slice the garlic. Slice the zucchini into 1/4-inch rounds. Cut the tomatoes into bite-size chunks. Slice the mushrooms. Heat wok until very hot. [While the wok is getting good and hot, put up the water to cook the noodles.] Add a few tablespoons of oil to the hot wok. Immediately add the onions and stir fry until they are kind of soft and semi-transparent. Remove onions to a heated dish. Again heat wok until very hot. Add another tablespoon of oil, then add the garlic and gingerroot. Stir fry until the garlic starts to turn brown. Add the ground beef. Stir fry until the meat is no longer pink. [Add the noodles to the boiling water.] At this point I take a meat baster and remove the fat (from the meat) from the wok. Now add all of the other ingredients (including the onions); stir well; then cover the wok and turn down the heat. When the noodles are done, turn off the fire under the wok. Drain the noodles and rinse according the package directions. For each serving put some noodles on a plate add the beef and zucchini mixture, then top with grated Parmesan cheese. I hope you enjoy this as much as we did! -- Rae

This is a wonderful (and EASY) recipe! At first, when I read the
recipe, I really wondered about the Parmesan cheese--it seemed
odd to put it on such an oriental-sounding dish. But I used it,
and it was great.
As I usually do, I cut down on fat and calories by using much less
oil than called for, and by using extra lean ground beef. For
noodles, I chose ramen noodles (they come in those cheap little
individual packages), which are super-fast to cook and pre-weighed.
