Instructions

1. Prepare the Steak Marinade:

• Combine soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, grated ginger, and cornstarch in a bowl.
• Add the thinly sliced steak, mix well, and marinate for at least 30 minutes (or overnight for deeper flavour).

2. Prepare the Sauce:

• In a small bowl, mix dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, rice vinegar, honey, chili flakes, and water or beef stock. Set aside.

3. Sear the Steak:

• Heat 1 tbsp vegetable oil in a wok or large skillet over high heat. Sear the marinated steak slices in batches for 1-2 minutes until caramelized. Remove and set aside.

4. Stir-Fry the Vegetables:

• Add the remaining 1 tbsp of oil to the wok. Add garlic and ginger, stir-frying until fragrant.
• Add the red and yellow bell peppers, onion, broccoli, and mushrooms. Stir-fry for 3-4 minutes, ensuring the vegetables remain crisp-tender.

5. Combine and Glaze:

• Return the seared steak to the wok. Pour in the prepared sauce and toss everything together, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until the sauce coats the ingredients beautifully.

6. Plating:
