Ingredients
  

  • 6 g whole black peppercorns about 2 teaspoons
  • 350 g beef fillet or steak cut into 2 cm cubes
  • 2 tablespoons oyster sauce
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon roasted sesame oil
  • 1 teaspoon potato starch
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 140 g onion cut into 1.5 cm squares
  • 100 g red and green bell peppers
  • 12 g garlic minced (about 2 cloves)

Equipment

  • Sharp knife
  • Cutting board
  • Skillet or wok
  • Tongs
  • Mortar and pestle (optional)

Method
 

  1. Crush the black peppercorns coarsely, either with a mortar and pestle or using a ziplock bag and rolling pin.
  2. In a bowl, whisk together the oyster sauce, soy sauce, sesame oil, and most of the crushed peppercorns. Add the potato starch last to avoid lumps.
  3. Toss in the beef cubes and coat them evenly, letting them marinate while you chop the veggies.
  4. Heat a skillet or wok over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
  5. Sear the beef pieces in a single layer, browning on both sides, then remove and set aside.
  6. Stir-fry the onions, bell peppers, and garlic until the onions are translucent and the peppers soften slightly.
  7. Pour in the reserved marinade and return the beef to the pan, stirring until the sauce thickens and coats the beef.
