Beef Bowl Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 oz beef, thinly sliced
- 1 onion, finely chopped
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sweet soy sauce (kecap manis)
- 1/2 cup water
Instructions:
-
Toast the Sesame Seeds: Begin by toasting the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over medium heat until they turn golden brown and become aromatic. Once toasted, remove from heat and set aside.
-
Prepare the Beef: In a bowl, coat the thinly sliced beef with oyster sauce, salt, sugar, black pepper, and soy sauce. Mix well to ensure the beef is evenly seasoned. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
-
Cook the Aromatics: Heat a bit of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and minced garlic, sautéing until they become fragrant and the onion is translucent.
-
Add the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the skillet with the onions and garlic. Cook until the beef is browned and cooked through, stirring occasionally.
-
Create the Sauce: Pour in the water and sweet soy sauce (kecap manis). Stir and let it simmer for a few minutes, allowing the sauce to reduce slightly and coat the beef.
-
Adjust the Flavor: Taste the sauce and adjust the seasoning if needed, adding more salt, sugar, or soy sauce to achieve your preferred flavor balance.
-
Serve: Spoon the beef mixture over steamed rice. Garnish with the toasted sesame seeds.
-
Enjoy: Serve hot and enjoy your delicious Beef Bowl!
