Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 400 grams beef sirloin or flank steak
- 6 stalks green onions (spring onions)
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons water
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
Instructions
Slice the beef thinly against the grain into bite-sized pieces.
In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, cornstarch, water, and sugar, and mix well to create the sauce. Set aside.
Trim and cut the green onions into 2-inch lengths. Separate the white and green parts.
Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or wok over medium-high heat.
Add the garlic and ginger to the pan, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Increase the heat to high, then add the sliced beef. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is starting to brown.
Add the white parts of the green onions and continue to stir-fry for another 1-2 minutes.
Pour the prepared sauce into the pan, and stir well to coat the beef and onions evenly.
Add the green parts of the green onions and cook for an additional minute.
Season with ground black pepper and stir to combine. Remove the pan from heat.
Serve the stir-fried beef and green onions hot, with rice or noodles, if desired.
