#11 Black Pepper Stir Fry Beef

Halloooo~! Okay so I have been cooking quite a lot lately. This is a cheat recipe. Why cheat? Coz I used instant mixture. I bought instant Adabi Black Pepper Beef mixture. Just to try out the taste actually but I swear it was soooon delicious! And super simple to make! I also have a tip on how to make your meat tender! Let's go!

Ingredients

1 medium sized onions (half sliced thinly, half finely chopped)
2 cloves of garlic (finely chopped)
1 packet of Adabi Black Pepper mixture (About $1+ can find at NTUC)
400g of sliced beef
Corn flour
Corriander leaves
Oil
(So little ingredients but so delicious?!)

Instructions

Firstly, this is a very important tip. Wash your beef. Lather your sliced beef with corn flour. Afterwhich, heat up some oil, and deep fry your beef. Don't over fry it, as it would end up being hard. Why do this extra step? Coz this step will tenderize your beef. It will be easy for you to chew then. Once done, you set the beef aside.
Next, heat up another pan, with about 3 tablespoon of oil. Saute the finely chopped onions and garlic, until you you can see it caramelized, and then add in your beef. Stir fry the beef. Meanwhile, add some water to the black pepper mixture. It will look quite watery, but don't worry, that will dry up pretty quick in the pan. After that you add it in. Stir the beef, so that every beef is covered in this delicious sauce.

To make the dish more appealing, I put some corn flour like 1 tablespoon, mix with some water, to thicken the paste, and will make your beef glisten. Once you see the sauce has already thicken up, just snip the corriander leaves into small pieces using a pair of scissors, and then add in the sliced onions. Let is cook for about a minute, turn off the heat, so the corriander and onion would still be crunchy. I added in 1 chilli, cut thinly, as a decoration, to add colours to my dish. And there you go! Your Black Pepper Stir Fry Beef!

Happy trying! :)
