Ingredients
    Main Ingredients
  • 300 g Beef, Thinly sliced
  • 1 Medium Zucchini (Sliced)
  • 1 Medium Onion (Sliced)
  • 2 Cloves Garlic (Minced)
  • 1 Tbsp Cooking Oil
  • Beef Marinate
  • 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tsp Sugar
  • 1 Tsp Cornstarch
  • 1 Tbsp Water
  • Stir-Fry Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Oyster Sauce
  • 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce
  • 1 Tsp Sugar
  • 2 Tbsp Water
  • 1/2 Tsp Sesame Oil
Steps
  1. 1
    Marinate the Beef

    Place the sliced beef in a bowl. Add soy sauce, sugar, cornstarch, sesame oil, and cooking oil. Mix well and marinate for 10–15 minutes.

  2. 2
    Prepare the Vegetables

    Slice the zucchini and onion. Mince the garlic.

  3. 3
    Stir-Fry the Beef

    Heat a wok or large frying pan over medium-high to high heat. Add a little oil and stir-fry the beef quickly until about 80% cooked. Remove from the wok and set aside.

  4. 4
    Cook the Onion and Add the Zucchini

    Add a little more oil if needed. Stir-fry the garlic until fragrant, then add the onion. Cook until the onion starts to soften.

    Add the zucchini and stir-fry for about 2–3 minutes. Keep the zucchini slightly crisp rather than cooking it until very soft.

  5. 5
    Bring Everything Together

    Return the beef to the wok. Add oyster sauce, soy sauce, sugar, and water. Stir-fry quickly until the beef is fully cooked and everything is evenly coated with the sauce.

  6. Finish
  7. 6

    Turn off the heat and stir in the sesame oil. Serve immediately with steamed rice.

Cooking Tips 烹飪技巧
  • Slice the beef against the grain for a more tender texture.
  • Cornstarch helps the beef stay tender and gives it a lovely texture.
  • Avoid overcooking the zucchini. A little crunch gives the dish a better texture.
  • Stir-fry the beef separately first to avoid overcooking it.
  • Serve with steamed rice to soak up the savory sauce.
