Ingredients
Scale
Beef Marinade
- 1 pound beef sirloin, sliced thin
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon vinegar
- 1 tablespoon garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon ginger, minced
Vegetables and Potatoes
- 1 bell pepper, sliced
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 large potatoes, julienned
Other Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Marinate Beef: In a bowl, combine soy sauce, vinegar, garlic, and ginger to create a flavorful marinade. Add the thinly sliced beef sirloin into the mixture and toss well to coat. Allow it to marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb all the flavors fully.
- Fry Potatoes: Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until hot. Add the julienned potatoes carefully and fry them until they turn golden brown and crispy. Once done, remove them from the oil, place on paper towels to drain excess oil, and season with salt to taste.
- Stir-Fry Beef and Vegetables: Using the same pan, add the marinated beef slices and stir-fry until the beef is browned and cooked through. Then, add the sliced onion and bell pepper to the pan and continue cooking until the vegetables soften but still retain some bite.
- Serve: Plate the stir-fried beef and vegetables alongside the crispy fried potatoes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed, and serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
Notes
- For extra crispiness, soak julienned potatoes in cold water for 20 minutes before frying to remove excess starch.
- You can substitute sirloin with flank steak or ribeye for different textures.
- Adjust vinegar quantity to taste depending on preferred tanginess.
- Serve with a side of fresh salad or steamed rice for a complete meal.
