In a small bowl, mix together 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 teaspoons of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water to create a slurry. Set aside.
In another bowl, marinate the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce, sesame oil, and a pinch of black pepper. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
Heat a wok or large skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the surface.
Add the marinated beef to the wok in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked. Remove and set aside.
In the same wok, add another tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the halved bok choy to the wok. Stir-fry for 2 minutes, ensuring the bok choy stays crisp-tender.
Return the beef to the wok and toss with the bok choy.
Pour the reserved slurry into the wok, followed by the oyster sauce, 1 tablespoon of water, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook for an additional 2 minutes or until the sauce thickens and evenly coats the beef and bok choy.
Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
