A quick and flavour-packed dish featuring seared sirloin served with crispy egg fried rice, seasoned with soy sauce, oyster sauce, and spring onions.
Ingredients
For the Beef:
- 907g sirloin steak, cut into 2.5cm (1-inch) cubes
- 10 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Maggi seasoning or soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon salt
- Ground black pepper, as needed
For the Egg Fried Rice:
- 3 tablespoons cooking oil
- 4-6 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
- 3 beaten eggs
- 4 cups 1-day-old long grain rice or jasmine rice
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1-2 tablespoons thin soy sauce
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- ½ tablespoon sugar
- 2 teaspoons white pepper
- 2-3 spring onions, chopped
Method
For the Beef:
In a bowl, combine the beef, garlic, Maggi seasoning (or soy sauce), sugar, salt, and black pepper to taste. Let stand at room temperature for 1 hour.
Preheat a large skillet over high heat and add vegetable oil. Add the remaining 5 cloves of minced garlic.
Add half the beef cubes and sear on all sides, shaking the pan, until medium rare, about 1 minute.
For the Rice:
In a large skillet, heat oil until a wisp of white smoke appears. Add the eggs and lightly scramble until just set.
Stir in the garlic and cook until light brown.
Fold in the rice (make sure not to press down), stirring in small circles to separate the rice grains.
Add the salt, thin soy sauce, oyster sauce, and sugar. Continue to fold for about 1-2 minutes. Don’t be afraid to scrape rice stuck to the bottom of the pan.
Cook until the rice absorbs the sauces and is slightly crisp on the edges.
Fold in the spring onions and white pepper and cook for an additional minute. Serve immediately.
To Serve:
Divide the beef into four portions and serve with the egg fried rice. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper.
