WOULD YOU EAT THIS CHINESE BEEF


 Ingredients:

For the stir fry:
1 lb beef (flank steak or sirloin), thinly sliced against the grain
2 large onions, sliced
2-3 cloves garlic, minced
2 tbsp vegetable oil (or sesame oil)
1 tbsp ginger, minced (optional)
1/4 cup soy sauce
2 tbsp oyster sauce (optional)
1 tbsp cornstarch
1/2 cup beef broth (or water)
1 tbsp sugar (to balance flavors)
Salt and pepper, to taste
Green onions, chopped (for garnish)
Sesame seeds (for garnish, optional)
Instructions:
Marinate the beef:

In a bowl, combine the sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, and a pinch of salt. Let it marinate for at least 15 minutes while you prepare the other ingredients.
Prepare the sauce:

In a separate bowl, mix together the remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, beef broth, sugar, and pepper. Set aside.
Stir fry the beef:

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet or wok over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir fry for about 2-3 minutes, or until browned and cooked through. Remove the beef from the skillet and set aside.
Cook the onions and garlic:

In the same skillet, add the remaining oil. Add the sliced onions and cook for about 3-4 minutes until they start to soften. If using, add the ginger and garlic, cooking for an additional minute until fragrant.
Combine and finish:

Return the beef to the skillet and pour in the sauce mixture. Stir everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly and the beef is heated through.
Serve:

Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds if desired. Serve hot over steamed rice or noodles.
Helpful Tips:
For a complete meal, add your favorite vegetables such as bell peppers, broccoli, or snap peas to the stir fry.
If you prefer a spicier kick, add sliced chili peppers or a splash of chili sauce to the stir fry.
Enjoy your Chinese Beef and Onion Stir Fry!
