Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons cooking oil
- 5 cups cooked white rice
- 2 large eggs lightly beaten
- 2 teaspoons Shaoxing cooking wine
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons dark soy sauce
- ½ teaspoon sesame oil
- 1 cup frozen peas
- 1 cup chopped red onions
- thinly sliced green onions and cilantro for garnish optional
- white pepper to taste
For the beef marinade:
- 8 ounces beef sirloin
- 1 tablespoon cooking oil
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon white pepper
- ½ teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon cornstarch
- 1 teaspoon Shaoxing cooking wine
- 1 teaspoons soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon dark soy sauce
- 1 tablespoons water
Instructions
- Cut the beef to ¼ inch strips and put them into a bowl.
- Prepare the marinade sauce: mix salt, white pepper, sugar, cornstarch, Shaoxing cooking wine, soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and water with the beef strips. Stir in the same direction until it’s combined. Let it marinate for about 10-15 minutes. Set aside.
- Heat cooking oil in a wok (different from the beef pan) on medium-high heat until it’s hot. Add the beaten eggs and scramble them into small pieces. Set aside.
- Heat one tablespoon of cooking oil in a non-stick pan and brown the marinated beef strips until they are fully cooked. Transfer to a plate and set aside.
- In the same wok, add oil and stir-fry the red onions for about two minutes or until they are soft. Then add the sweet peas and stir fry again. Fold in the cooked rice on top of the red onion and sweet pea mixture and combine well.
- Add the remaining sauces (soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and sesame oil) around the edge of the wok and stir them into the rice mixture for another 2 minutes or so.
- Pour in the scrambled eggs and cooked beef strips. Toss and turn them with a spatula until they are combined.
- Garnish with green onions and cilantro and serve hot. Enjoy!
