- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- Cornstarch (for thickening, optional)

Instructions

Prepare the Beef: Begin by slicing or dicing the beef into thin pieces. For a more tender texture, you may choose to briefly boil the beef until slightly softened.

Slice the Vegetables: Thinly slice the onion and bell pepper. Finely chop the bird’s eye chilies and mince the garlic.

Sauté Aromatics: Heat the cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the minced garlic and chopped bird’s eye chilies, sautéing until fragrant.

Cook the Beef: Add the beef to the pan along with a small amount of water. Allow it to cook for about 2 minutes. Then, incorporate the oyster sauce, stirring well.

Season and Simmer: Sprinkle in half of the black pepper beef seasoning and mix thoroughly. Let the beef marinate in the seasoning for about 5 minutes. Add approximately 100 cc of water and, if desired, a teaspoon of cornstarch to thicken the sauce.

Adjust Seasoning: Stir everything together and let it simmer for another 5 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning with additional salt and sugar if needed.

Add Vegetables: Add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the pan. Continue to cook, stirring frequently, until the vegetables are just tender.
