2. For the vegetables:Start by cooking the veggies. Over high heat, heat 1 tbsp. of oil, add the pepper, cover the pan and cook them for 2-3 minutes(I like the pepper so soft , if you like them crunchy cook them for 2 mins uncovered pan). Add mushrooms, red onions, and garlic, Ginger, all spices salt pepper and soy sauce. Cook more for about 2-3 minutes. Remove the veggies to a plate and set them aside.


3. In the same pan, heat 2 tbsp. of oil, add the strips steak to the pan and cook them on high heat for 5 mins. After, turn the heat into low and cover the pan and let them simmer for 20 mins until tenderness. 


4. Add the cooked veggies to the steak and stir them well. (Steak Fajitas is ready here)


5. For the rice: In a medium pan , heat the oil on medium heat. Add the onions and cook them until softened, add the garlic, curry powder, vinegar, soy sauce and salt and stir well to coat the onions. Add the water to the pan and stir, add the rice, bring it to a boil until the water significantly reduces. Turn the heat to low and cover the pan. Cook for 15-20 mins on low. Once fully cooked add 1 tbsp. of butter and turn the heat off. Leave the rice in the pot for 15 mins, then uncover and fluff with a fork.

Assembly: In a cake pan add the steak fajitas first, then add the rice, wait 15 mins before you flip it over.

In a large platter flip over the cake pan . It should fall out easily.
