Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Beef sirloin (thinly sliced)
- 300 grams Green beans (trimmed)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh ginger (minced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Hoisin sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Red pepper flakes (optional)
- 4 servings Cooked white or brown rice (for serving)
Instructions
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, hoisin sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, water, and cornstarch. Stir until fully combined and set aside.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the green beans and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until bright green and slightly tender but still crisp. Remove the green beans from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Once hot, add the thinly sliced beef in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Work in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Add the minced garlic, minced ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using) to the beef. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Return the green beans to the skillet. Pour the sauce mixture over the beef and green beans. Stir well to coat all the ingredients in the sauce.
Continue cooking for 1-2 minutes until the sauce thickens and everything is heated through.
Serve immediately over cooked white or brown rice. Enjoy!
