Ingredients
- 1 lb (450g) beef strips (sirloin or ribeye)
- 2 tbsp (30g) vegetable oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tbsp (15g) grated fresh ginger
- 1 tbsp (15g) soy sauce
- 1 tbsp (15g) oyster sauce (optional)
- 1 tsp sesame oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 2 tbsp (30g) soy sauce
- 2 tbsp (30g) oyster sauce (optional)
- 2 tbsp (30g) hoisin sauce
- 2 tbsp (30g) rice vinegar
- 1 tbsp (15g) cornstarch
- 1 large onion, sliced
- 1 tbsp (15g) vegetable oil

Instructions
- Prepare the steak: In a bowl, whisk together 1 tbsp soy sauce, oyster sauce, ginger, garlic, and sesame oil. Toss the beef strips in this marinade and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
- Cook the onions: Heat 1 tbsp of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and sauté until they are soft and slightly caramelized. Season with salt and pepper, then remove from the pan and set aside.
- Sear the beef: In the same pan, heat 2 tbsp of vegetable oil over high heat. Add the marinated beef strips and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until they are browned.
- Make the sauce: In a small bowl, whisk together the remaining soy sauce, hoisin sauce, rice vinegar, and cornstarch. Pour this sauce over the beef and let it simmer until it thickens.
- Combine & serve: Add the sautéed onions back into the pan with the beef and sauce, stirring to combine. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the beef longer if possible. Feel free to add other vegetables for more nutrition.
