Ingredients

  • 400 g Beef sirloin
  • 2 pcs Bell peppers
  • 2 cups Broccoli
  • 60 ml Soy sauce
  • 30 ml Oyster sauce
  • 2 tbsp Ginger
  • 4 cloves Garlic
  • 30 ml Vegetable oil
  • 1 tbsp Cornstarch
  • 2 cups Rice

Instructions

  1. 1

    Slice beef against the grain into thin strips. Marinate with 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tsp cornstarch, and 1 tbsp oil for 15 minutes.

    💡 The cornstarch creates a silky coating that sears beautifully.} (Cook for 2-4 min at medium (350-375°F))

  2. 2

    Heat wok over high heat until smoking. Add 2 tbsp oil and sear beef in single layer until browned, 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.

    💡 Don't overcrowd - work in batches for proper browning.} (Cook for 2-4 min at medium (350-375°F))

  3. 3

    Add vegetables (broccoli, bell peppers, snap peas) and stir-fry for 3 minutes until crisp-tender.

    💡 Keep vegetables moving for even cooking.} (Cook for 3-5 min per side at medium-high (375-400°F))

  4. 4

    Return beef to wok. Add sauce (2 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tsp sugar, 2 tbsp water). Toss until sauce thickens and coats.

    💡 The sauce should cling to the beef, not pool in the bottom.} (Cook for 2-4 min at medium (350-375°F))

  5. 5

    Heat wok over high heat until smoking. Add oil, swirl to coat. Sear beef in single layer for 2 minutes until browned, then toss for 1 more minute. Add vegetables in order of hardness, stir-fry 3 minutes. Add sauce, toss to coat. Finish with sesame oil and serve immediately over steamed rice.

    💡 High heat is non-negotiable - it sears the beef while keeping vegetables crisp. Overcrowding steams instead of stir-frying. Work in batches if needed.
