Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 1/2 tbsp soy sauce ((Note 1))
3 tbsp honey
1 1/2 tbsp Oyster sauce ((sub Hoisin))
1 1/2 tbsp Chinese cooking wine (, Mirin or dry sherry (Note 2))
2 tbsp water
1 tsp coarsely crushed black pepper ((or 1/2 tsp normal ground black pepper))
2 tbsp peanut oil ((or vegetable or canola oil))
1 garlic clove (, finely minced)
1/2 onion (, peeled and sliced)
500g/1 lb thinly sliced tenderloin, flank, sirloin/Porterhouse/strip, (or any other cut of steak suitable for stir frying (Notes 3))

Steps:

  • Mix the Sauce ingredients in a bowl.
  • Heat the oil in a wok or large heavy based skillet over high heat until it is smoking.
  • Add the onion and garlic and cook for 1 minute or until the onion becomes translucent. Keep it moving so the garlic doesn't burn.
  • Add the beef and stir fry for 1 minute until just cooked to your liking, then remove into bowl.
  • Turn the heat down to medium high, pour in Sauce - it will start simmering very quickly! Let it cook for 1 minute or so until it becomes syrupy - the bubbles will be larger and caramel colour.
  • Add the beef and onion back into the wok, along with any juices pooled on the plate. Toss in the sauce until just warmed through - 1 minute at most. Don't overcook the beef - that would be tragic!
  • Serve immediately with rice - or for a low carb, low cal option, try Cauliflower Rice!

EASY CLASSIC CHINESE BEEF STIR FRY



Easy Classic Chinese Beef Stir Fry image

Made with a classic Chinese stir fry sauce, this is a great recipe to use up whatever leftover greens you have in the fridge! Instead of making this Sauce, you can use my All Purpose Stir Fry Sauce (see Note 1) If using economical beef, consider tenderising it the Chinese way ("velveting", simple, highly effective, see Note 5!)

Tips:

  • Adjust the heat level to your preference by adding more or less red pepper flakes or chili sauce.
  • To save time, use pre-cut steak strips or thinly slice your preferred cut of steak against the grain.
  • For a healthier option, use leaner cuts of steak like flank steak or sirloin tip.
  • Serve over jasmine rice, brown rice, or your favorite grain for a complete meal.
