Main Ingredients- Beef brisket (thinly sliced) 250g
- Bean sprouts 2 handfuls (generous amount)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, rinse the bean sprouts thoroughly under running water to remove any dirt or debris. After rinsing, drain them well in a colander to remove excess water. This is crucial to prevent the dish from becoming watery during cooking.
Step 2
Heat a lightly oiled pan over medium-high heat. Add the 250g of thinly sliced beef brisket and stir-fry. If the brisket is fatty, you can gently wipe the pan with paper towels between cooking to remove excess grease for a cleaner result.
Step 3
Continue to cook the beef brisket, turning it occasionally, until it’s golden brown and looks appetizing. Once cooked, remove the brisket from the pan and set it aside on a plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 4
There will be some residual oil left in the pan from cooking the beef. Add the drained bean sprouts to this hot pan and stir-fry them briskly over high heat. They will begin to soften and wilt slightly.
Step 5
While keeping the heat high, evenly pour 2 Tbsp of ‘Cham Sauce’ over the bean sprouts in the pan. This Korean soy sauce-based condiment will add a wonderful savory depth to the dish.
Step 6
Next, add 0.5 Tbsp of oyster sauce. Oyster sauce contributes a rich umami flavor. Quickly stir everything together to ensure the sauces are evenly distributed and coat the bean sprouts.
Step 7
Now, return the cooked beef brisket to the pan. Gently toss everything together to combine the meat and bean sprouts with the sauce. Be careful not to overcook at this stage; stir-fry for only about 30 seconds to 1 minute, just long enough to meld the flavors and heat through, preserving the bean sprouts’ crispness.
Step 8
Just before turning off the heat, drizzle 1 Tbsp of sesame oil around the edges of the pan. The fragrant aroma of the sesame oil will elevate the overall flavor profile of the dish.
Step 9
Finally, sprinkle a pinch of toasted sesame seeds over the stir-fry for added texture and visual appeal. Your delicious Beef Brisket and Bean Sprout Stir-fry is now complete!
Step 10
Enjoy this delightful dish with a warm bowl of rice, or serve it as a fantastic accompaniment to a cold beer or soju!
