Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Lamb loin or leg steak (thinly sliced)
- 1 Red bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 1 Yellow bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 1 Green bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 3 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 teaspoon Ginger (grated)
- 3 tablespoons Dark soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Light soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon Oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 3 Spring onions (sliced into 2-inch pieces)
- 1 teaspoon Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Prepare the lamb by slicing it thinly against the grain. Season the lamb slices with salt and black pepper and set aside.
In a small bowl, mix the dark soy sauce, light soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, and water to create the stir fry sauce. Stir well and set aside.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add the lamb slices in batches to prevent overcrowding, searing for 1-2 minutes per side until browned. Remove and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the sliced red, yellow, and green bell peppers to the wok. Stir fry for 2-3 minutes until they soften but remain crisp.
Return the seared lamb to the wok and toss with the peppers. Pour the prepared stir fry sauce into the wok, stirring to coat all ingredients evenly.
Add the sliced spring onions and stir fry for an additional minute until the sauce thickens slightly and everything is well combined.
Remove from heat and garnish with sesame seeds if desired. Serve immediately over steamed rice or noodles.
