Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 21

1 flank steak ((about 1 lbs / 450 g), cut against the grain to 1/8" (4-mm) slices (*Footnote 1))
1 egg (, beaten)
1 tablespoon peanut oil ((or vegetable oil))
1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons Chinkiang vinegar ((*Footnote 2))
2 tablespoons Shaoxing wine
1 tablespoon light soy sauce ((or soy sauce))
1 tablespoon dark soy sauce ((or soy sauce) (*Footnote 3))
1 tablespoon homemade chili oil ((Optional))
1 tablespoon Doubanjiang ((fermented chili bean paste) (*Footnote 4))
1/2 cup beef stock ((or water))
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/3 cup cornstarch
1/3 cup peanut oil ((or vegetable oil))
1/4 white onion (, sliced)
1 bell pepper (, thinly sliced (I used half red and half green))
4 Chinese dried chili peppers
1 tablespoon ginger (, minced)
1 tablespoon garlic (, minced)
Roasted sesame seeds (for garnish (Optional))

Steps:

  • Beat the egg in a medium sized bowl. Add the sliced beef, vegetable oil, and salt. Mix well and let marinate for 15 to 20 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
  • Combine everything for the sauce in a big bowl and mix well.
  • When you're ready to cook, drain the extra liquid from the bowl of beef. Add the cornstarch. Stir to coat the beef, until it forms an uneven coating with a little dry cornstarch left unattached.
  • Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet (or a cast iron pan) over medium high heat until hot. Add the beef and spread into a single layer in the skillet. Separate the beef pieces with a pair of tongs or chopsticks.
  • Cook without touching the beef for 2 to 3 minutes, or until the bottom turns golden. Flip to brown the other side, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer the beef to a big plate and remove the pan from the stove. Let cool for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Place the pan back onto the stove and turn to medium heat. You should still have 1 to 2 tablespoons of oil in the pan. If not, add more.
  • Add the onion, pepper, and dried chili pepper. Cook and stir for 1 minute.
  • Add the ginger and garlic. Stir a few times to release the fragrance.
  • Stir the sauce again to dissolve the cornstarch completely. Pour into the pan. Stir and cook until it thickens a bit.
  • Add back the beef pieces. Stir to coat beef with sauce.
  • Transfer everything to a plate immediately and garnish with roasted sesame seeds, if using.
  • Serve hot over steamed rice as a main dish.
