Ingredients

Main Ingredients (2 servings)

  • Beef (thinly sliced) 150g
  • Potatoes 2 (approx. 120g each)
  • Onion 1/2
  • Potato Starch 1/3 tsp
  • Scallions (green part) 2 stalks

Seasonings

  • Vegetable Oil 1 tbsp
  • [A] Oyster Sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] Soy Sauce 1 tbsp
  • [A] Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) 1 tbsp
  • [A] Sugar 2-3 tsp
  • [A] Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) 3 tbsp

Steps

  1. Wrap Potatoes (approx. 120g each) in plastic wrap and microwave until tender. The key is to microwave them with the skin on for a fluffier texture.
  2. Lightly cool the microwaved potatoes and peel them.
  3. Cut the potatoes into about 8 bite-sized pieces.
  4. Cut the Onion (1/2) into large, 3cm chunks to retain texture.
  5. Finely chop the Scallions (2 stalks) and soak them in water to make them crisp.
  6. In a bowl, combine Oyster Sauce (1 tbsp), Soy Sauce (1 tbsp), Mirin (Sweet Rice Wine) (1 tbsp), Sugar (2-3 tsp), and Cooking Sake (Rice Wine) (3 tbsp). Mix well.
  7. Heat Vegetable Oil (1 tbsp) in a frying pan.
  8. Add the chopped onion to the frying pan and stir-fry briefly.
  9. Once the onion is lightly stir-fried, add the Beef (thinly sliced) (150g).
  10. Once the beef is cooked, lightly coat it with the prepared sauce mixture. The key is to season each ingredient separately to allow the flavors to penetrate while stir-frying.
  11. Add the pre-cooked potatoes and stir-fry, allowing them to absorb the sweetness of the onion and the umami of the meat.
  12. Dissolve Potato Starch (1/3 tsp) in the remaining sauce mixture to create a slurry.
  13. Pour the potato starch slurry into the frying pan and stir until the sauce thickens and coats everything.
  14. Transfer to a serving dish and generously top with the drained scallions.
