Introduction
This high-energy stir-fry features beef, bell peppers, and king trumpet mushrooms, finished with a rich, savory oyster sauce-based blend. By massaging the marinade and potato starch into the beef before cooking, the meat stays incredibly tender and locks in its juices. It pairs perfectly with rice, making it an ideal choice for bento boxes or meal prep.
Step 1
Place the thinly sliced beef in a bowl and add the mirin (1 tsp) first, massaging it well into the meat.
Step 2
Add the sake (1 tbsp), soy sauce (1 tsp), sesame oil (1 tsp), and potato starch (1 tsp). Massage thoroughly by hand, cover tightly with plastic wrap, and let it marinate at room temperature for about 10 minutes.
Step 3
Push the bell pepper stems inward, cut them in half, and remove the stems, seeds, and white pith. Tear into bite-sized pieces by hand.
Step 4
Cut the king trumpet mushrooms in half lengthwise, make a cross-cut in the base, and tear into bite-sized strips by hand.
Step 5
In a separate bowl, combine the oyster sauce, soy sauce (1/2 tbsp), sugar, sake (1 tbsp), chicken bouillon powder, and grated garlic. Stir well until the sugar has fully dissolved to create the sauce.
Ingredients List
Important Notes
Adding mirin to the beef first helps tenderize the meat while adding depth and a subtle sweetness. ✨
Coating the meat with potato starch locks in the juices and flavor, preventing it from becoming tough even after it cools. 💡
Tearing the bell peppers and mushrooms by hand increases their surface area, allowing the sauce to coat them much more effectively. 🍳
Always mix the sauce in advance and add it all at once to prevent the meat from drying out due to overcooking. ⚠️
Beef is very delicate, so avoid overcooking it at all costs. Work quickly once the sauce is added. 👥
