Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g Beef sirloin (thinly sliced)
- 4 tbsp Soy sauce
- 2 tbsp Sesame oil
- 2 tbsp Oyster sauce
- 1 tbsp Honey
- 4 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 tsp Ginger (grated)
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 125 ml Water
- 1 Red bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 1 Green bell pepper (sliced into strips)
- 1 Carrot (julienned)
- 3 Green onion (sliced into 2-inch pieces)
- 2 tbsp Vegetable oil
- 1 tsp Sesame seeds (optional, for garnish)
- 4 servings Cooked rice or noodles (for serving)
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine soy sauce, sesame oil, oyster sauce, honey, garlic, and ginger. Stir well to create the marinade.
Add the sliced beef sirloin to the bowl, ensuring the pieces are well coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes, or up to 1 hour for more flavor.
In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Heat a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Add the marinated beef strips to the skillet in batches (avoid overcrowding) and sear for 1-2 minutes per side until browned. Remove the beef and set aside.
In the same skillet, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and stir-fry the red bell pepper, green bell pepper, carrot, and green onion for 3-4 minutes, or until tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the skillet, and pour the cornstarch slurry over the mixture. Stir everything together to evenly coat and thicken the sauce.
Cook for 2-3 more minutes until the sauce becomes glossy and the beef is well-coated in the sauce. Remove from heat.
Serve the Oriental Beef Strips hot over a bed of cooked rice or noodles. Garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
