- 8 oz (230g) beef tenderloin, flank steak or flap meat cut into pieces
- 2 ½ tablespoons cooking oil
- 1 clove garlic minced
- 1 piece fresh ginger peeled and sliced
- 1/2 small green bell pepper deseeded and cut into pieces
- 1/2 small red bell pepper deseeded and cut into pieces
- 1/2 onion cut into strips
- 1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- Salt to taste
Marinade:
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Maggi seasoning sauce
- 1/2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon dark soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon oyster sauce
- 1 teaspoon worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon Chinese rice wine or sherry
- 1/2 teaspoon corn starch
- 1/2 teaspoon sesame oil
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
Marinate the beef with all the Marinade ingredients, about 15 minutes.
Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a wok or skillet over high heat. Stir-fry the beef until the beef is browned on the outside but still pink inside. Dish out and set aside.
Heat the remaining oil in a wok or skillet over high heat. Stir-fry the garlic and the ginger until aromatic, and then add the green bell pepper, red bell pepper, onion, and black pepper. Stir-fry until you smell the aroma from the ingredients in the wok.
Transfer the beef back into the wok or skillet. Stir-fry until the beef is cooked through and the center of the meat is no longer pink, about 1-2 minutes. Dish out and serve immediately with steamed rice.
