Dad bought  some beef tenderloin and gave some to me. I love beef but hardly have the chance to cook at home because Dearie Suki don’t take beef. So, even if I cook beef at home, it will be all for me. I don’t really introduce beef for both my kids except for the beef burger they ate at the fast food chains. When I cooked the beef with spring onion and ginger last week, my kids don’t really like it. They just took the sauce and ate with rice. Ee-Thern asked me, why the meat so yucky! Sigh…its either my cooking is bad or they don’t really like beef.

Ingredients:
250 gm beef tenderloin, cut into thin slices
One knob young ginger, cut into thin slices
2 stalks spring onion, cut into 2 inch length
Some chopped garlic
1/4 cup water
Salt and pepper to taste
Cornstarch for thickening

Marinade Ingredients:
2 tbsp oyster sauce
1 tsp soy sauce
1 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp cornflour
A dash of black pepper
2 tsp Hsiao Hsing wine

Method:
1. Marinate the beef slices with the marinade ingredients, preferably over night.
2. Heat oil in wok and stir-fry marinated beef briskly. Dish up and set aside.
3. Use the remaining oil in the wok and saute chopped garlic and ginger till fragrant. Return the beef slices and stir fry well.
