Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 lb (450g) flank steak or sirloin, thinly sliced against the grain
  • 1 medium head green cabbage (about 2 lbs/900g), cored and sliced into thin strips
  • 2 medium carrots (about 1 cup/120g), julienned
  • 3 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 tablespoon fresh ginger, grated
  • 3 green onions, sliced (white and green parts separated)
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable or peanut oil, divided
  • 3 tablespoons soy sauce (low-sodium preferred)
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1 teaspoon sesame oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or honey
  • ¼ teaspoon white pepper
  • 2 tablespoons water
  • 1 teaspoon cornstarch

Instructions

  1. Slice beef against the grain into thin strips. Toss with 1 teaspoon cornstarch, ½ teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce. Let marinate while preparing vegetables.
  2. Mix remaining soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, brown sugar, white pepper, water, and cornstarch in a small bowl. Set aside.
  3. Heat wok or large skillet over high heat. Add 1 tablespoon oil and swirl to coat. Add beef in a single layer and sear for 30 seconds, then stir-fry for 1-2 minutes until browned but still slightly pink inside. Transfer to a plate.
  4. Return wok to high heat and add remaining oil. Add white parts of green onions, garlic, and ginger, stirring for 30 seconds until fragrant.
  5. Add carrots and stir-fry for 1 minute. Add cabbage in batches, tossing continuously as it wilts. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes until crisp-tender.
  6. Return beef to the wok with any accumulated juices. Pour sauce over everything and toss to coat. Cover and reduce heat to medium for 1 minute.
  7. Remove lid and stir-fry for another minute until sauce thickens and becomes glossy. Taste and adjust seasoning if needed.
  8. Garnish with reserved green onion tops and serve immediately.
