Ingredients:

8 ounces beef flank steak

1 green pepper

1 red pepper

1 small onion

1 cup cooking oil

Marinade:

4 tablespoons water

1/4 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon chicken base

1/4 teaspoon sugar

1 egg white

1 teaspoon cornstarch

Sauce:

1 tablespoon soy sauce

1 teaspoon oyster sauce

1 teaspoon wine

1 teaspoon chicken stock

1/2 teaspoon chicken base

1/2 teaspoon sugar

Pinch of white pepper

1 teaspoon cornstarch

1/4 teaspoon sesame oil

Method:

1. Slice beef flank steak. Combine marinade ingredients. Marinate beef in a bowl for at least 30 minutes. Cut peppers and onion into bite-size pieces. Set aside.

2. Mix the sauce ingredients in a bowl and set aside.

3. Place approximately 1 cup of cooking oil in a heated wok or fry pan and heat oil to medium heat. Place marinated beef in heated oil and cook until almost done. Drain beef into a strainer. Set aside.

4. Leave about a teaspoon of oil in the wok. Place it back on the stove. Stir-fry onion and peppers for 30 seconds. Pour sauce mixture over onions and green peppers. Stir occasionally with a spatula.

5. When sauce mixture begins to darken in color, place beef back into the wok and stir-fry swiftly. The dish is done when the peppers have softened. Serve hot with steamed white rice.
