Ingredients

• 500 grams beef sirloin, thinly sliced
• 2 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 4 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons dark soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 3 tablespoons water
• 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
• 1 teaspoon red chili flakes
• 3 stalks green onions, sliced
• 1 tablespoon sesame seeds, for garnish
• 4 cups steamed white rice, for serving

Directions

Step 1

In a mixing bowl, combine the soy sauce, dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, brown sugar, and cornstarch. Add water and mix until well combined. Set aside.

Step 2

Heat a large skillet or wok over high heat and add 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.

Step 3

Add the thinly sliced beef to the skillet and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned but not fully cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.

Step 5

Return the beef to the skillet and pour in the prepared sauce. Toss to coat the beef in the sauce and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, or until the sauce thickens and the beef is fully cooked.
