Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound beef sirloin
- 3 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 2 medium onions
- 3 garlic cloves
- 1 inch piece ginger
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon sesame oil
- 2 green onions (scallions)
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons water
Instructions
Slice the beef sirloin thinly against the grain into bite-sized strips.
In a medium bowl, combine the sliced beef with 1 tablespoon of soy sauce and the cornstarch. Mix well and let it marinate for at least 10 minutes.
While the beef is marinating, peel and thinly slice the onions and mince the garlic cloves. Peel and grate the ginger.
Heat a large wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil and swirl to coat the pan.
Add the marinated beef to the hot wok in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned and just cooked through. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
In the same wok, add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Add the sliced onions, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the onions are soft and translucent.
Return the beef to the wok with the onions. Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, and water. Stir everything together and cook for another 2 minutes until the sauces are well combined and everything is heated through.
Slice the green onions and add them to the wok. Sprinkle the ground black pepper over the stir-fry. Stir everything together for the final minute of cooking.
Serve immediately with steamed rice or noodles as desired.
