Step 3: Cook the Vegetables
In the same pan, add a bit more oil if needed and stir-fry the garlic and ginger until fragrant. Add the sliced onions and bell peppers, cooking until they start to soften but still retain some crunch.
Step 4: Combine and Sauce
Return the beef to the pan. Add soy sauce, oyster sauce, a pinch of sugar, and plenty of freshly ground black pepper. Toss everything together and cook for another 2-3 minutes until the beef is cooked through and the sauce thickens.
Step 5: Garnish and Serve
