- 2 cloves garlic sliced
- 7 baby bella mushrooms remove the steams and quartered
Marinade
- 1 tablespoon reduced-sodium soy sauce
- 1/2 tablespoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon corn starch
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Brown Sauce
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar
- 1/2 tablespoon corn starch

Instructions
- Marinate the beef with soy sauce, dark soy sauce, corn starch and baking soda for 10 to 15 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the sauce by mixing soy sauce, oyster sauce, sugar, corn starch and water in a small bowl. Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a wok or skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced garlic, deep fry them on both sides for 1 minute, or until crispy and golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with a sheet of paper towel and set aside.
- Turn up the heat to high heat, add beef. And use the remaining oil for stir-frying the beef until 70 % cooked. Dish out and set aside.

Transfer the beef into the wok or skillet and stir-fry until the beef is cooked through and the center of the meat is no longer pink, about 1 to 2 minutes. Then, stir in the prepared brown sauce.
- Once the sauce thickens, turn off the heat. Dish out and top with crispy garlic slices. Serve immediately.

Notes
Tips:
- For the best tender beef, marinate the meat with corn starch and baking soda along with other ingredients.
- To ensure the beef remains tender and juicy after cooking, stir-fry the marinated beef over high heat until 70% cooked. Dish out and set aside. The beef will be cooked through while cooking with the mushrooms and sauce in the last few minutes. Do Not overcook the meat.
- The brown sauce should be light and not sticky.
