Beef with Bok Choy in Oyster Sauce

Beef with Bok Choy in Oyster Sauce
Beef with Bok Choy in Oyster Sauce. Here is another quick and delicious beef stirfry dish that is recommended for busy people who almost have no time to cook but still want to enjoy good home cooked meal. Cooking will take more or less 10 minutes excluding marinating time of about 10 to 15 minutes. Cooking is almost similar to my previous beef strifry recipes. The beef is first marinated with soy sauce and cornstarch before strifrying. Beef cooked fast and they tend to get rubbery when overcook. Bok choy have thick stalks therefore the stalks have to be sliced thinner and will be added first before the leafy portion. With the addition of oyster sauce you cannot go wrong, just watch the amount of oyster sauce as they some brands are salty. Here is the recipe of my Beef with Bok Choy in Oyster Sauce.

Beef with Bok Choy

Ingredients:

1/2 kilo beef, thinly sliced into strips
1 bunch baby bok choy, into serving pieces, stalk thinly sliced
1 medium size onion, chopped
2-3 cloves garlic, finely chopped
1 thumb size ginger, peeled, cut into thin strips
1 small bundle spring onion, cut diagonally
2 pieces red/green chili sliced
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup oyster sauce
1/4 cup cornstarch
salt and pepper
cooking oil

Beef with Bok Choy in Oyster Sauce - Cooking Procedure

Cooking procedure:

Marinate beef in soy sauce and cornstarch for 10 to 15 minutes. In a wok, heat generous amount of cooking oil and stir fry garlic and ginger for a minute or until fragrant. Add in onion and stir fry for another half a minute. Remove stirfried aromatics from the pan and keep aside. Using the same pan stirfry beef in batches for 3 to 5 minutes until color changes to brown and start to sizzle and seared. Add in the stirfried aromatics and the bok choy and stir cook for 1 to 2 minutes then add in the leafy part of bok choy and stir cook for another 1 to 2 minutes.

    I tried this with Pechay Baguio. I cooked the Pechay with the aromatics and jalapeno first. I marinated the beef with soysauce and oyster sauce then stir fry for 5 min. Then cook them together and add more oyster sauce. Thanks for this recipe my future mother-in-law was impressed and she said its masarap. :)
