Thinly slice the beef sirloin into bite-sized strips. Set aside.

Slice the yellow onion and red bell pepper into thin slices.
Chop the green onions into 1-inch pieces and mince the garlic cloves.
In a small bowl, mix soy sauce, oyster sauce, fish sauce, sugar, cornstarch, and water to create the stir-fry sauce. Stir until smooth and set aside.
Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.

Add the onion and red bell pepper slices. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the vegetables are slightly softened.
Return the beef to the wok, along with the prepared stir-fry sauce. Stir well to coat everything evenly.
Cook for 2-3 more minutes until the sauce thickens and the beef is cooked through.
