Beef in Oyster Sauce

This dish comes from southern China or the Guandong region. It is a traditional dish. Some recipes don’t call for the addition of peppers. By removing the beef and peppers in the early stages and adding them later, they remain crunchy and add texture to the dish.

Preparation:

  1. Cut the beef into thin slices 5cm (2ins) long and put them into a bowl. Add the Light Soy Sauce, Shaoxing wine and cornflour. Let the mixture marinate for 15 minutes. Cut the pepper into 5cm (2in) strips.
  2. Heat a wok or large frying-pan until it is very hot. Add 1 tbsp of the oil and when it is almost smoking, add the beef and stir fry for 3 minutes. Remove the beef slices and drain them in a sieve or colander. Clean the wok, add the remaining oil and add the pepper and stir fry for 1-2 minutes. Remove them and drain with the beef.
  3. Wipe the wok clean and re-heat it over a high heat. Add the chicken stock and Oyster Sauce. Bring the liquid to the boil, add the cornflour mixture and simmer for two minutes.
  4. Return the drained beef and peppers to the pan and coat all the slices thoroughly with the sauce. Turn the mixture onto a serving plate and garnish with spring onions. Serve at once.

Useful tip:

Ideally you should use a carbon steel wok and not a non-stick wok when stir frying... more

Great taste - combined with noodles to provide starch.

Loved it. I added a finely chopped onion and a finely shredded carrot and served it with medium soft noodles.
