Thank you! I worked on this one quite a bit. But I don't think I will cook it again for awhile.

Boy, doesn't it (look good)?
I've got half a flank steak left. I could see me attempting this. It would be a great way to use it up.

Thank you. Flank Steak would work really good in this recipe.

Very nicely done video....congrats, it looks delectable.

I must admit that I wanted to hand you a good knife though.
I only kid the folks I like, by the way.

I wonder how it would work without the oyster sauce (don't have any). I hate to buy it just for 1 tablespoon. Do you think it would make a big difference in flavor? I have never used oyster sauce but I do have some fish sauce in the house. Would that make a good sub?

Good thing I had a drool rag handy. Nice picture, Power Plant Op!

Thank you! the knifes in this fully stocked apartment are crap! If I had know I was going to be here this long I would have bought a better knife.

For that I would only put a bit or fish sauce and more soy.

Are you still in Santiago? How's your weather wherever you are?

I am quite a bit North of there. But I will be there Wed thru Fri this week. Which is good I need to hit an Asian market.

The weather is awsome. The beach is full everyday.

This dish looks so yummy : ) What is the best cut of beef to use for this? I have tried to make Asian dishes with beef and I can never quite get the tenderness of the meat like they do in the restaurants. Any suggestions? Thanks : )

 

[spork]

That looks really good, PPTop! What kind of chili pepper do you use? recommend?

Welcome to DC, yogababe. Try our site's search function, within a discussion thread, for the term "velveting" to get that soft chinese stir fry tenderness out of beef.

 

[Mimizkitchen]

Now that is a magnificent looking dish!!! I am so going to make this...
