Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Beef sirloin
- 200 grams Garlic scapes
- 3 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger
- 1 teaspoon Sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 4 servings Cooked jasmine rice (for serving)
Instructions
Thinly slice the beef sirloin against the grain into bite-sized strips. Place the slices in a bowl.
In the bowl with the beef, add 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, 1 tablespoon of oyster sauce, sesame oil, cornstarch, and a pinch of ground black pepper. Mix well and set aside to marinate for 10 minutes.
While the beef marinates, trim the garlic scapes and cut them into 2-inch pieces. Mince the garlic and grate the fresh ginger.
In a small bowl, mix the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, and 1 tablespoon of water. Set aside.
Heat a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl it around the pan.
Add the beef slices to the hot wok in a single layer. Sear for 1-2 minutes per side until browned, but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the garlic scapes to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are vibrant green and slightly softened.
Return the beef to the wok along with any juices that accumulated in the resting bowl. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and scapes.
Stir-fry everything together for 2-3 minutes until the beef is fully cooked and the sauce evenly coats all the ingredients.
Transfer the stir-fry to a serving dish and serve hot with cooked jasmine rice.
