Heat the sesame oil in a wok or large frying pan over medium heat. Add the remaining lemongrass and stir-fry for about 1 minute.

Add the marinated veal to the wok and stir-fry quickly over high heat until well browned on all sides, about 4 to 5 minutes.

Add the chili (if using) and lime juice, mix well. Cook for another minute to coat the veal thoroughly.

Serve immediately with wild rice and garnish with sprouted seeds. You can enhance this dish with stir-fried vegetables for a balanced meal.
Note
Technically, wild rice is not rice but an aquatic grass, which gives it a superior nutritional profile to conventional rice, with a much lower GI (35)
