Ingredients

● ½ kg Pechay Tagalog (Bok Choy), washed and sliced

● 250g beef sirloin or flank steak, sliced (2 inches long, ½ inch wide and ⅛ inch thickness)

● ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper or to taste

● 2 tablespoons cooking oil

● 6 cloves garlic, minced

● 1 medium size onion, chopped

● 2 small ripe tomatoes, sliced

● 2 tablespoons soy sauce

● 1 cup water

● 2 tablespoons oyster sauce

Instructions

1. Heat the oil in a wok or large frying pan over high heat. Stir fry the beef strips.

2. Add ground black pepper. Stir and continue to fry until the meat turns brown, about 3-5 minutes. Move the meat to the side of the pan. Lower the heat to medium-high.

3. Sauté garlic and cook for 30 seconds or until fragrant. Add onions and saute for 2-3 minutes. Return the stir-fried beef.

4. Add tomatoes and sauté for one minute.

5. Add soy sauce and water. Cover and bring to the boil.

6. Add oyster sauce. Stir well.

7. Add in the Bok Choy (Pechay Tagalog). Cover and simmer for 2 minutes. Stir thoroughly to blend. Turn off heat. Serve immediately.

Tips

1. Served with warm rice and any type of grilled or fried fish.

2. As both the soy sauce and the oyster sauce balance the saltiness of this dish for us, there’s no need to add salt. However, feel free to add salt according to your taste.

3. The beef strips can be replaced either by shrimps, pork, or chicken. This can also be made with just the Bok Choy (Pechay Tagalog) vegetables.
