For me, dinner is the ideal meal of the day, less rush than breakfast and lunch. Most importantly, it’s a time with lovely family. What I prepared for our dinner today is a stir-fried beef with vegetables. It is a humble (I mean plain) dish that anyone can make it in their kitchen. The vegetables that I chose for this dish are all season vegetables. Feel free to add in whatever vegetables you like. If you don’t like bell peppers or bamboo shoot, snow peas and asparaguses will work the same.
SERVES TWO
INGREDIENTS
300g steak (sliced into thin strips)
1 red bell pepper (chopped into thin strips)

1 tablespoon oyster sauce
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
Salt as required
BEEF MARINATED SAUCE
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon oyster sauce
2 cloves garlic finely chopped
