Prepare the Base:
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped shallots and garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant and translucent. -
Cook the Beef:
Add the finely chopped beef to the pan with the shallots and garlic. Continue to sauté, stirring occasionally, until the beef changes color and begins to brown. -
Add Flavorings:
Pour in the sweet soy sauce, stirring to coat the beef evenly. Add salt, sugar, and freshly ground black pepper to taste. -
Incorporate Potatoes:
Add the pre-fried potato cubes to the pan. Stir well to combine, ensuring that the potatoes are coated with the sauce and mixed thoroughly with the beef. -
Season and Simmer:
If using, sprinkle in the mushroom seasoning powder. Adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more sweet soy sauce if you prefer a sweeter flavor. Continue to cook, allowing the mixture to simmer until the flavors meld and the sauce thickens slightly. -
Finish and Serve:
Once the beef is cooked through and the potatoes have absorbed the flavors, remove from heat. Transfer to a serving dish and enjoy warm.
