BEEF IN OYSTER SAUCE



Beef in Oyster Sauce image

I love this dish. It's full of flavor, and takes minutes to cook. This is definitely, one of my favorite suppers. This is essentially 3 stir fried dishes in one - stir fried spinach, beef in oyster sauce and mushrooms in tangy vinegar. This dish uses all my top store cupboard ingredients: groundnut oil for the stir-fry, light soy sauce, Shaohsing rice wine, Chinkiang black rice vinegar and dried chile flakes. It also has oyster sauce in it. Try and find an oyster sauce which doesn't have chemical additives or Monosodium Glutamate (MSG) in it - some people are allergic to MSG so check the label to make sure that it doesn't have flavor enhancers. This is a balanced dish because of the use of spinach - (yin) and meat and garlic (yang). Stir frying has a neutral element. You can serve this with plain Jasmine rice or just with the spinach and mushrooms.

Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

12 ounces beef fillet (tenderloin), pounded and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon light soy sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons oyster sauce
Salt and freshly cracked black pepper
Pinch sugar
2 tablespoons groundnut oil (peanut), divided
3 cloves garlic, crushed and finely chopped
1 medium chile, seeded and finely chopped
7 ounces baby spinach leaves
1 tablespoon Shaohsing rice wine
Pinch dried chile flakes
1 teaspoon groundnut oil (peanut)
4 ounces oyster mushrooms
Water, as needed
1 tablespoon black rice vinegar* (recommended: Chinkiang) or balsamic vinegar
Dash light soy sauce

Steps:

  • To make the beef: Prepare the fillet of beef by hammering it with a meat cleaver, the side of a meat cleaver, the side of a Chinese cleaver or a rolling pin. Slice it thinly, and put the pieces into a bowl. Season the beef with the light soy sauce, oyster sauce, salt, black pepper, and sugar. Set aside.
  • Heat a wok over high heat, and add 1 tablespoon groundnut oil. Add the garlic, and chile, and toss quickly. Then, add the spinach leaves, and toss so they warm for 5 seconds. Scatter them onto a large serving plate.
  • Heat the wok over high heat, and add the remaining groundnut oil. Add the beef slices, and stir-fry for 1 to 2 minutes, adding a dash of Shaohsing rice wine. Season with a pinch of dried chile flakes. To serve, lay the beef over a bed of the garlic-spinach leaves.
  • To make the mushrooms: Reheat the wok, add the oil, then add the oyster mushrooms and stir fry for 1 minute. Add a small splash of water to create some steam to help cook. Season with the black rice vinegar, and light soy sauce. Spoon the mixture over the beef, and serve.

SPICY BEEF FILET IN OYSTER SAUCE



Spicy Beef Filet in Oyster Sauce image

My good friend Lin gave me a recipe for beef in oyster sauce, I misread the amount of black pepper called for in her recipe, and the result was fantastic! I especially like the recipe because no soy sauce is used. My husband likes to eat them with the leftover sliced uncooked onion to bring out the sweetness of the oyster sauce.

A simple yet impressive nibble that gives a contemporary edge to party food

Provided by John Torode

Categories     Buffet, Starter

Time 25m

Yield Makes 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

150ml oyster sauce
50ml chicken stock
2 long red chillies , sliced (seeds in if you want, or out if not)
2 spring onions , sliced
12 bamboo skewers
400g rump steak , cut into 4cm strips
50ml light soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
groundnut or vegetable oil , for griddling
lime wedges, to serve

Steps:

  • Soak the wooden skewers in warm water for 1 hr before you want to use them. Drop the meat into a bowl with the soy sauce and sesame oil and leave for a while, preferably 1 hr. Thread onto skewers and refrigerate until you need them. Can be done up to 1 day ahead.
  • Heat a griddle until very hot, then sprinkle the meat with a little oil. Hang the meat-free ends of the skewers over the side of the pan so they're easy to turn. These need to cook quick and fast, so think heat, heat and more heat. Turn them every 30 secs or so; cook for 4-5 mins in total. They should be slightly crisp outside but cooked inside.
  • Heat the oyster sauce with the stock, then take off the heat and stir in the sliced chilli and spring onions. Spoon over the beef and serve with the lime wedges.

Make and share this Stir Fried Beef and Broccoli in Oyster Sauce recipe from Food.com.

Provided by Loves2Teach

Categories     Vegetable

Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 15

3/4 lb flank steak
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine
2 tablespoons water
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1/8 cup vegetable oil
3 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon fresh gingerroot, Chopped
6 green onions, chopped
1/3 cup water
1 lb broccoli, cut into florets
2 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 tablespoon soy sauce
1 tablespoon rice wine
1 tablespoon cornstarch

Steps:

  • Cut meat across the grain into very thin slices.
  • Place in a bowl and combine with soy sauce, rice wine, water and cornstarch.
  • Allow to marinate at least 10 minutes (I sometimes do this in the morning, then cook when I get home).
  • Meanwhile prepare remaining ingredients and stir together sauce mixture.
  • Heat oil in a wok or large skillet.
  • Add meat and cook, stirring constantly, until meat is about 75 per cent cooked.
  • Remove and reserve.
  • Scrape out pan if necessary and return to heat.
  • Add another 2 tablespoons oil if needed and heat.
  • Add garlic, ginger and green onions and cook 30 to 60 seconds until fragrant.
  • Stir in cut-up broccoli and add water.
  • Cover and cook 3 minutes.
  • Re-add beef to pan and combine well.
  • Add sauce to mixture and bring to boil.
  • Cook until thickened and beef and broccoli are cooked through.
  • Serve with steamed rice.

Tips:

  • To ensure the best results, select high-quality flank steak or skirt steak.
  • Thinly slicing the beef against the grain makes it more tender and easier to chew.
  • Marinating the beef in a mixture of soy sauce, brown sugar, and cornstarch not only adds flavor but also helps tenderize the meat.
  • When stir-frying the beef, make sure the pan is hot enough to sear the meat quickly and create a nice caramelized crust.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan when cooking the beef, as this will prevent it from searing properly.
  • To achieve the perfect texture, cook the beef until it is just cooked through, as overcooking will make it tough.
  • Adding a cornstarch slurry at the end of the cooking process helps thicken the sauce and create a glossy finish.
  • Garnish the dish with chopped green onions and sesame seeds for an extra pop of flavor and color.
