Sizzling Beef


When it comes to dinner, I cook everyday. Problem is, I keep forgetting to take some pictures and post them in my blog. Making use of my new sizzling hotplate has reminded me to do so tonight. There you go, we have sizzling beef, home made Ham Tan, and cauliflowers with mince pork. I was stufffed like a fat lady's socks.

Sizzling Beef
500 g fresh beef thinly sliced
1 large red Onion sliced
Few slices fresh ginger
1 clove garlic crushed

Seasonings
Dark soya sauce
3 tbsp chinese rice wine
Oyster Sauce
Chilli powder
Pepper
Corn starch
Sesame oil
olive oil for frying

In a wok, heat olive oil till medium hot. Add in ginger, red onion and garlic. Stir fry until fragrant. Put in beef and fry until redness is gone. Add chinese rice wine and simmer to reduce. Add dark soya sauce, oyster sauce, chilli powder, pepper and a dash of sesame oil. Mix well and add one cup of water and let to reduced to half. Add in corn starch mixed with little amount of water to thicken the sauce. When gravy appears thickened, remove from heat and place aside.
Before serving, heat hotplate on stove. Place hotplate on the wooden base and pour the beef gently onto the plate. Take extra careful not to stand too near to the plate as it really sizzlers.
