Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 450 grams Beef sirloin (thinly sliced)
- 150 grams Snow peas (trimmed)
- 2 Carrots (thinly sliced into matchsticks)
- 4 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons Oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons Sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon Ginger (minced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 2 teaspoons Cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons Water
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt (optional)
- 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
- 2 Green onions (chopped, for garnish)
- 4 servings Cooked rice (for serving, optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, prepare the sauce by mixing the soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sesame oil. Set aside.
In another small bowl, combine the cornstarch and water to create a slurry. Set aside.
Season the sliced beef with salt and black pepper. Toss to coat evenly.
Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the beef in a single layer. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until browned but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the pan and set aside.
Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the same wok or skillet. Add the minced ginger and garlic, stir-frying for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
Add the carrots to the pan and stir-fry for 2 minutes to soften slightly. Then add the snow peas and stir-fry for another 2 minutes until the vegetables are tender-crisp.
Return the beef to the pan and pour in the prepared sauce. Toss to combine all ingredients evenly.
Stir in the cornstarch slurry to thicken the sauce. Cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the sauce becomes glossy and coats the beef and vegetables.
Remove from heat and garnish with chopped green onions.
Serve hot with steamed rice, if desired.
