Directions

  1. 1

    In a bowl, mix the beef cut into pieces with the salt, sesame oil, white pepper, egg white, 2 tablespoons of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of oil. Let marinate for 15 minutes.

  2. 2

    Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the marinated beef and cook until golden brown (about 5-7 minutes). Remove the beef and set aside.

  3. 3

    In the same wok, add the minced ginger and garlic, then the onions, carrots, and bell pepper. Sauté for 3-4 minutes. Add the celery and mushrooms, and continue cooking for 2-3 minutes.

  4. 4

    Pour in the rice wine, water, oyster sauce, hot sauce, sugar, and soy sauce. Return the beef to the pan. Dissolve the remaining cornstarch in a little water and pour it in to thicken. Stir for 2 minutes until a smooth sauce is obtained.

💡 Chef's Tip

For best results, prepare all ingredients in advance. Use a wok or a very hot large skillet for a quick stir-fry and crisp vegetables. Adjust the spice level according to your preferences.
