- 125 grams of fresh beef

- 1/4 teaspoon beef seasoning (Royco)
- 3 tablespoons Saori Teriyaki sauce
- 1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 tablespoon Saori oyster sauce
- Sesame oil
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 small red onion
- 1/2 large onion
- Red chili peppers (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 100 ml water
Instructions:
-
Prepare the Beef: Begin by slicing the fresh beef thinly. In a mixing bowl, combine the beef with lime juice, Saori Teriyaki sauce, sweet soy sauce, garlic powder, beef seasoning, and pepper. Mix thoroughly to ensure the beef is well coated. Cover and let it marinate for at least one hour. For a more intense flavor, marinate the beef in the refrigerator.
-
Sauté Aromatics: Slice the garlic, red onion, and, if desired, red chili peppers thinly. Heat a splash of sesame oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced garlic, red onion, and chili peppers. Sauté until they become fragrant and slightly golden.
-
Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet with the sautéed aromatics. Stir-fry the beef until it is browned and cooked through. Adjust the consistency of the sauce by adding 100 ml of water, or as desired.
-
Season and Thicken: Season the dish with salt, pepper, and Saori oyster sauce. Stir in sugar to balance the flavors. Add the sliced large onion to the skillet. Mix well and allow it to cook until the onion is tender.
-
Thicken the Sauce: In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 2 tablespoons of water. Pour this mixture into the skillet and stir well. Cook until the sauce thickens and becomes glossy.
-
Serve: Serve your Beef Teriyaki hot over steamed rice or alongside crispy fried potatoes.
