3 tablespoons soy sauce, regular or light
1 tablespoon Shaoxing wine sub: Chinese cooking wine, dry sherry, or sake
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
2 teaspoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 tablespoon sesame oil, dark-colored variety
½ cup water
For the stir-fry
1 pound flank steak (see note)
¼ teaspoon baking soda
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 medium onion sliced into strips
1 medium red bell pepper sliced into strips
3 scallions cut into 2-inch sections
2 teaspoons minced ginger
4 cloves garlic minced
Ground pepper to taste
Neutral-flavored oil for searing and sautéing
Instructions
1. Make the sauce by combining soy sauce, Shaoxing wine, oyster sauce, sugar, cornstarch, sesame oil, and ½ cup of water. Set aside.
2. Slice the meat thinly (about ¼ inch) against the grain or across the muscle fibers.
3. Add 2 tablespoons of stir-fry sauce to the meat and mix them together.
4. Add baking soda and cornstarch. Mix them well, so they are evenly distributed. Velvet the meat for about 15 minutes while you prepare the rest of the ingredients.
5. Set your wok or skillet over high heat. Add a bit of oil to coat the bottom when the pan is almost smoking. Spread the meat in a single layer.
6. Sear for about 2 minutes without touching them. Let the other side brown for another minute. Transfer to a plate.
7. Cook onions and red bell peppers for a minute until slightly blistered. Add scallions and push them to one side. Slightly lower the heat at this point.
8. Add a bit of oil and sauté ginger and garlic for about 30 seconds. Toss them all together.
9. Add meat and sauce to the pan. Let the sauce slightly thicken for about 30 seconds.
10. Add some ground pepper and mix them together. Turn off the heat.

Serves 4
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 8 minutes
Procedures:
1. Add the sliced beef, salt and pepper, garlic, ginger, soy sauce, egg, and corn starch to a bowl and mix until completely combined.
2. Next, add 3 tablespoons of canola oil to a large wok over high heat.
3. Once it begins to roll smoke add in the beef and immediately move it up the sides of the pan so that it doesn’t clump, and all of the pieces can get cooked.
4. Stir-fry for 2 to 3 minutes and set aside.
5. Add 3 tablespoons of canola oil to wok and return it to the burner over high heat until it rolls smoke again.
6. Add in the bell peppers, onions, mushrooms and green onions and stir fry for 1 to 2 minutes or until a light sear has been created.
7. Add the broccoli and carrots to a separate large pot of boiling water and cook for 1 to 2 minutes.
8. Pour the oyster sauce, sherry, sugar and soy sauce to the wok with stir fried vegetables and cook for 1 to 2 minutes stirring constantly.
9. Add the boiled broccoli and carrots to the wok along with the cooked beef and mix until combined.
10. Serve the beef stir fry with jasmine rice and add on optional garnishes of sliced green onions and sesame seeds.
CHEF NOTES:
I can’t stress enough to use ingredients you like as the stir fry sauce will complement the just about anything.
To keep this recipe completely vegetarian, do not use the oyster sauce.
No matter what cut of beef you select; It should be thinly sliced against the grain for maximum tenderness.
Mirin or rice wine would be preferred over sherry wine if you can find it.
I recommend using an oil with a high smoking point like canola or vegetable oil.
