Cooking

  • Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  • Add the sliced beef and stir-fry until browned, about 3-4 minutes.

  • In the same skillet, add the onions and stir-fry until caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

  • Return the beef to the skillet, then add the soy sauce and oyster sauce. Stir to combine and cook for another 2-3 minutes.

Notes

For extra flavor, marinate the beef in soy sauce and ginger for 15-30 minutes before cooking. Make sure not to overcrowd the skillet when stir-frying the beef. Adjust the amount of soy sauce and oyster sauce according to your taste preferences.
