Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams beef sirloin
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion
- 1 medium bell pepper
- 3 pieces garlic cloves
- 2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 100 milliliters water
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 stalks green onions
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin into thin strips, about 1/4 inch thick.
In a mixing bowl, combine the beef strips with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and cornstarch. Mix well and let marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, slice the onion and bell pepper into thin strips. Mince the garlic cloves.
In a large pan or wok, heat 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry for about 3-4 minutes until browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
In the same pan, add the remaining tablespoon of vegetable oil. Stir-fry the minced garlic for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the pan. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they begin to soften.
Return the beef to the pan, then sprinkle in the black pepper and add the oyster sauce, remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, and sugar.
Pour in the water and stir everything to combine well. Let the sauce simmer for 2-3 minutes, allowing it to thicken slightly.
Add the sliced green onions and sesame oil, and give it a final toss to mix.
Taste and adjust the seasoning if needed. Serve hot with steamed rice.
