Ingredients
  

1 lb (450g) beef flank steak, thinly sliced against the grain

2 tablespoons soy sauce

1 tablespoon oyster sauce

2 teaspoons cornstarch

2 tablespoons vegetable oil (divided)

1 red bell pepper, sliced

1 cup broccoli florets

1 medium carrot, julienned

1 cup snap peas, trimmed

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch ginger, grated

1 tablespoon green onion, chopped (for garnish)

Sesame seeds (for garnish)

Cooked jasmine rice or noodles (to serve)

Instructions
 

Marinate the Beef: In a bowl, combine the thinly sliced beef with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and cornstarch. Mix well until the beef is coated. Let it marinate while you prepare the vegetables (about 5 minutes).

    Prep the Veggies: Wash and cut the red bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and snap peas. Mince the garlic and grate the ginger.

      Heat the Oil: In a large skillet or wok, heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil over high heat until shimmering.

        Cook the Beef: Add the marinated beef to the hot oil in a single layer (you may need to do this in batches). Stir-fry for about 2-3 minutes until the beef is browned and almost cooked through. Remove from the skillet and set aside.

          Sauté the Vegetables: In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of oil. Toss in the minced garlic and grated ginger, stirring for about 30 seconds until fragrant. Add the sliced bell pepper, broccoli, carrot, and snap peas. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until the veggies are tender-crisp.

            Combine and Finish: Return the cooked beef to the skillet. Cook and stir for another 1-2 minutes to heat through and blend the flavors. If desired, add a splash more soy sauce for extra flavor.

              Serve: Serve the stir-fry immediately over cooked jasmine rice or noodles. Garnish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds.
