Ingredients
For the Marinade:
- 1/4 pound thinly sliced beef (pounded lightly)
- 1/2 packet oyster sauce
- 2 teaspoons ground coriander
- Salt, to taste
For the Teriyaki Sauce:
- 5 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 5 green chilies, sliced
- 1/2 packet oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
- A splash of sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
- Salt, to taste
- A pinch of sugar
- A splash of water
- 4 tablespoons cooking oil
Instructions
-
Marinate the Beef: Begin by preparing the beef for marination. In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with 1/2 packet of oyster sauce, 2 teaspoons of ground coriander, and salt to taste. Mix thoroughly, ensuring that the beef is well-coated with the marinade. Cover and refrigerate overnight or, if using a freezer, place in an airtight container.
-
Prepare the Teriyaki Sauce: Heat a skillet over medium heat and add the cooking oil. Once the oil is hot, sauté the chopped onion until it becomes translucent and starts to soften. Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant. Stir in the sliced green chilies and cook for an additional minute.
-
Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet. Stir-fry until the beef starts to brown. Pour in the remaining oyster sauce, soy sauce, and a splash of sweet soy sauce (kecap manis). Mix well to ensure the beef is evenly coated with the sauce. Add a splash of water to help create a smooth sauce consistency, and season with salt and a pinch of sugar. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the beef is cooked through and tender. Since the beef is thinly sliced, it will cook quickly.
-
Final Adjustments: Taste the dish and adjust the seasoning if necessary. If the sauce is too thick, you can add a bit more water to reach your desired consistency.
-
Serve: Once the beef is cooked and the sauce has thickened slightly, remove from heat. Serve the Teriyaki Beef hot over steamed rice or with your favorite side dishes.
Enjoy the delightful taste of this Hokben-style Teriyaki Beef, a perfect blend of savory, sweet, and spicy flavors that’s sure to please any palate.
