Units
Scale
- 350 grams scotch fillet steak
- 1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine (substitute with red wine or sherry)
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon light olive oil, plus extra for cooking
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
- 1 red bell pepper, sliced
- 1 green bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1/4 cup beef stock
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch, mixed with 2 teaspoons water
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Trim the steak of fat and cut into thin slices against the grain.
- In a small bowl, combine the steak slices with Shaoxing wine, light soy sauce, sugar, and sesame oil. Mix well and marinate for at least 15 minutes.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large wok or skillet over high heat. Add the minced garlic and ginger, and stir-fry for about 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the marinated beef to the wok and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked. Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
- In the same wok, add a little more olive oil if needed, and stir-fry the sliced red and green bell peppers and onion for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
- Return the beef to the wok, add the oyster sauce, dark soy sauce, and beef stock. Stir well to combine all ingredients.
- Mix the cornstarch with water to create a slurry, then add it to the wok. Stir continuously until the sauce thickens and coats the beef and vegetables.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste, and serve immediately over steamed rice.
Notes
For a spicier version, add sliced chili peppers. Substitute vegetables as desired, such as broccoli or snap peas. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat gently to avoid overcooking the beef.
