Ingredients:
- 1 pound (450g) sirloin steak, thinly sliced
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) sesame oil
- ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon (1.25ml) black pepper
- 4 cups (approx. 900g) cooked and chilled long-grain rice
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) vegetable oil
- 1 medium yellow onion, diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup (approx. 120g) frozen peas
- 1 cup (approx. 120g) diced carrots
- 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
- 2 green onions (scallions), thinly sliced
- 3 tablespoons (45ml) soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons (30ml) oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon (15ml) brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon (5ml) rice vinegar
- ½ teaspoon (2.5ml) ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon (1.25ml) red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions:
- In a medium bowl, combine sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil, ginger, and pepper. Toss to coat evenly. Set aside for at least 10 minutes.
- In a small bowl, whisk together soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, rice vinegar, ginger, and red pepper flakes (if using). Set aside.
- Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Add the marinated beef and stir-fry until browned and cooked through (about 3-5 minutes). Remove beef from the wok and set aside.
- Add the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil to the wok. Add the diced onion and cook until softened (about 2 minutes). Add the minced garlic and cook until fragrant (about 30 seconds). Add frozen peas and diced carrots and cook for 2-3 minutes, until slightly softened.
- Push the vegetables to one side of the wok. Pour the beaten eggs into the empty space and scramble until cooked through.
- Add the cooked and chilled rice to the wok. Break up any clumps with a spatula. Add the cooked beef back to the wok.
- Pour the prepared sauce over the rice, beef, and vegetables. Toss everything together to ensure the rice is evenly coated with the sauce.
- Garnish with sliced green onions. Serve immediately.
