Prep: 10 mins
Cook: 10 mins
Difficulty Level: Easy
Serves: 4 People
1 lb (450g) Steak, thinly sliced against the grain
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
1/2 tsp Salt
3 tbsp Cornflour (Cornstarch)
60 ml Stock
1 tbsp Soy sauce
1 tbsp Shaoxing wine (or dry sherry)
1.5 tsp Rice wine vinegar
1 tsp Sesame oil
2 tbsp Sugar
1 clove Garlic, minced
1 tsp Cornflour (Cornstarch)
In a mixing bowl, combine beef, Shaoxing wine, salt, and cornflour.
Toss until the beef is evenly coated and let sit for 10 minutes while you prepare the sauce.
In a separate bowl, mix together the stock, soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, rice wine vinegar, sesame oil, sugar, garlic, and cornflour.
Set aside.
Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok over medium-high heat until hot.
Add the beef and peppers. Cook for about 1 minute, or until golden brown.
Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or for a balanced meal, add stir-fried pak choi and sweet and sour pork. And don’t forget—your Chopstick Heaven personalised chopsticks will make this meal feel even more divine.
Cut Against the Grain: For the most tender beef, slice thinly against the muscle fibers.
No Wok? No Problem! A large skillet works beautifully—just make sure it’s hot before the beef hits the pan.
