For the steak

- 1 tbsp fresh ginger, finely grated
- 3 tbsp red curry paste
- 1 can (13.5 oz) full-fat coconut milk

Heat 1 tbsp of the coconut oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat until shimmering. Add the steak strips in a single layer — work in two batches if needed to avoid crowding — and sear for 1–2 minutes per side until browned on the outside and just opaque throughout with no pink remaining at the center. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
