For the Black Pepper Sauce:

• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 50 grams of mushrooms (button mushrooms or oyster mushrooms, depending on preference)
• 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
• ½ teaspoon finely ground black pepper
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon cornstarch
• 200 milliliters water
• 1 teaspoon soy sauce
• 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Beef Steaks:

   • Slice the beef steak into pieces approximately 1 cm thick. Place the slices on a plate and coat them with the finely chopped pineapple and black pepper powder.
   • Gently press the seasoning into the meat and let it marinate for about 5 minutes. Be careful not to marinate for too long to prevent the meat from becoming too tender.
   • Preheat a grill pan or a skillet over medium heat and cook the marinated steaks to your desired level of doneness.

2. Prepare the Black Pepper Sauce:

   • Heat the vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Add the finely chopped onion and minced garlic, cooking until they become soft and translucent.
   • Add the mushrooms and coarsely ground black pepper to the pan. Stir and cook until the mushrooms are tender and browned.
   • Stir in the oyster sauce and soy sauce, mixing well to combine the flavors.

3. Make the Sauce:

   • In a separate bowl, mix the water with the all-purpose flour and cornstarch until fully dissolved.
   • Gradually pour this mixture into the pan with the mushroom mixture, stirring continuously until the sauce thickens and reaches a desirable consistency.
   • Season the sauce with salt to taste. Remove the pan from heat once the sauce is thick and smooth.

4. Serve:

   • Place the cooked beef steaks on a serving plate and generously ladle the black pepper sauce over the top.
   • Serve hot and enjoy the robust flavors of this classic dish.
