Ingredients

Sauce

  • 3 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
  • 1.5 tablespoon honey
  • 2 cloves garlic minced
  • 2 teaspoon knob ginger, minced (about 2cm piece)
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

Rice

  • 1 tablespoon neutral oil
  • ½ onion sliced
  • 250 g beef thinly sliced
  • 1.5 cups cooked short grain rice
  • ¾ cup corn kernels
  • 2 spring onions sliced
  • 1 tablespoon unsalted butter

Instructions

  • In a small bowl combine all of the sauce ingredients and stir together.
  • Heat oil in a pan over high heat. Add sliced onion and cook until browned and soft. Push into the centre of the pan. Turn the heat down to medium.
  • Press your cooked rice into a small bowl and then turn out on top of the cooked onions.
  • Lay your thinly sliced beef around the rice. Pour over corn kernels and sliced spring onions, and then place the cube of butter right in the centre atop the rice.
  • Pour over your sauce and then start mixing everything together. Spend about five minutes or so mixing all your ingredients so that the rice can absorb the sauce and your beef is cooked through. Serve immediately.

Notes

  • Before serving, press the rice into the pan while still on the stove top to crisp up the bottom layer a little.
  • At Pepper Lunch, you can also add cheese your your beef pepper rice and if this is your thing (personally I am about it), then sprinkle over mozzarella and allow to melt before serving.
