How to Make Beef With Bean Sprouts
- Marinate sliced beef (1 lb) with 2 tablespoons light soy sauce and 1 tablespoon tapioca starch or cornstarch for 5-10 minutes.
- Heat your wok or large skillet over high heat.
- Add 1 tablespoon peanut oil to the hot wok.
- Add 1 tablespoon minced ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, and 1/2 cup chopped onion. Stir-fry for 30 seconds until fragrant.
- Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through (about 3-5 minutes).
- Remove the beef from the wok and set aside.
- Add 1 cup bean sprouts, 1/2 cup sliced bell pepper (any color), and 1/4 cup chopped scallions to the wok. Stir-fry for 2-3 minutes until crisp-tender.
- Return the beef to the wok. In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 cup soy sauce, 2 tablespoons oyster sauce (optional), 1 tablespoon rice vinegar, and 1 teaspoon sesame oil. Pour the sauce over the beef and vegetables. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens slightly (about 1 minute).
- Serve immediately over rice or noodles.
