Instructions
- In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Marinate for at least 20-30 minutes.
- In a pan, melt butter, sauté half of the garlic until it becomes fragrant and slightly golden. Be careful not to burn it. This is for the toppings, set it aside.
- In the same pan, add the reaming half of minced garlic and sautè for a minute. Increase the heat to high and add the marinated beef to the pan. Spread it out in a single layer to allow even cooking. Sear for 2-3 minutes or until no longer pink. Set it aside.
- In the same pan, melt 2 tablespoon of butter. Stir in flour and mix until well combined. Pour in 2 cups of water, add ½ piece of beef cubes and mushrooms. Add black pepper and garlic powder. Let it simmer until the sauce is thickened.
- Add seared beef back to the pan and stir for about 2 minutes until sauce is fully incorporated.
- Once done, remove from the heat. Serve the Garlic Pepper Beef over steamed rice, and garnish with additional black pepper if desired.
Notes
- Beef: Choose a tender cut of beef, such as sirloin, flank steak, or tenderloin. Slicing the beef thinly will help keep it tender.
- Garlic: Fresh garlic is key essential for this recipe. We need lots of garlic for toppings and for stir frying.
- Black Pepper: Freshly ground black pepper provides the signature peppery kick to this dish.
- Marinade: Marinating the beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch not only flavours the meat but also helps tenderize it.
- Mushroom, Flour, Butter, Garlic Powder: for mushroom gravy.
