Materials
1.5 pounds of Beef Steak of your choice cut into thin slices
Salt and Pepper to Season
3 tbsp of Chinese Cooking Wine optional
1.5 tbsp of Corn Starch
1 tsp of Baking Soda
1 Egg White
Instructions
1. Marinate beef with corn starch, baking soda, egg white, and Chinese cooking wine.
Season with some salt and black pepper. Set it aside for at least 10 minutes.
2. Mix oyster sauce, soy sauce, black pepper, ketchup, rice vinegar, and sugar separately.
3. In a pan, add in oil and turn the heat to medium-high. Once the oil is hot, add the beef and
fry it for 2-3 minutes or until brown. Once the meat is brown, set aside.
4. In a pan, drizzle in oil and turn the heat to medium-high.
5. Statue together garlic, onion, sliced ginger, and red pepper for 2-3 minutes.
6. Add in the sauce and mix for 30 seconds – 1 minute.
7. Add back in the beef and saute together on high heat for 1 - 2 minutes.
Notes
I am deep frying the beef slices today to make them extra tender; however, you can also pan-
fry the meat.
The corn starch and egg white will also tenderize the meat and prevent it from becoming
chewy or tough when cooking. I recommend pan-frying the beef versus air-frying as you have
better control of the texture.
