Honey Garlic Chilli Beef Stir Fry

Ingredients:

• For the beef marinade:
•  (225g) beef (flank steak, sirloin, or rib-eye), thinly sliced against the grain
• 1 tbsp soy sauce
• 1/2 tbsp cornstarch
• 1/2 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1/2 tsp sesame oil

• For the stir-fry sauce:

• 1 1/2 tbsp honey
• 1 1/2 tbsp soy sauce
• 1 tbsp oyster sauce
• 1 tbsp rice vinegar
• 1 tsp chili flakes (or to taste)
• 2 clove garlic, minced
• 1/2 tbsp fresh ginger, minced
• 1/2 tsp sesame oil

• For the stir fry:

• 1/2 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/2 green bell pepper, thinly sliced
• 1/2 small onion, thinly sliced
• 1 small carrot, julienned
• 1-2 spring onions 

1. Marinate the Beef:

• In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, rice vinegar, and sesame oil. Toss to coat and let it sit for 15–20 minutes.

2. Make the Stir-Fry Sauce:

• In a small bowl, mix together the honey, soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, hoisin sauce, chili flakes, garlic, ginger, and sesame oil. Stir until well combined and set aside.

3. Prepare the Vegetables:

• Slice the bell peppers, onion, and carrot into thin strips. Set them aside for stir-frying.

4. Stir-Fry the Beef:

• Heat a large pan or wok over medium-high heat. Add vegetable oil. Once the pan is hot, add the marinated beef and stir-fry for 2-3 minutes, or until it’s cooked through and browned. Remove the beef from the pan and set it aside.

5. Stir-Fry the Vegetables:

• In the same pan, add another drop of oil. Toss in the bell peppers, onion, and carrot, and stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until they’re slightly tender but still crisp.

6. Combine and Finish:

• Return the beef to the pan with the vegetables. Pour in the stir-fry sauce and toss everything together until the sauce has thickened and coats the beef and vegetables, about 1-2 minutes
