2 medium sized onions peeled and chopped into thick slices
1 green bell pepper deseeded and sliced

1 tbsp Chinese rice wine (or replace with dry sherry)
120 ml (½ cup) beef stock
2 cloves garlic peeled and minced
1 tsp minced ginger

To Serve:
Boiled rice or Egg Fried rice

Instructions
1. Toss the steak slices with 1 tsp of the black pepper and the ¼ tsp of salt.

2. Heat 3tbsp of the sunflower oil and the 1 tsp of sesame oil in a wok (or large frying pan) over a high heat until hot, then add the steak.

3. Fry the steak for 2-3 minutes, moving it around the wok so it doesn't stick together, until browned.

4. Spoon out the steak into a bowl, leaving any oil behind in the wok.

5. Turn down the heat to medium. Add the remaining 1 tbsp of sunflower oil to the wok.

6. Add in the sliced onions and sliced peppers.

7. Stir fry the vegetables for 3-4 minutes until starting to soften.

8. Whilst the vegetables are cooking, take a small jug and add the 2 tbsp of cornflour, 2 tbsp dark soy sauce, 2 tbsp oyster sauce, 1 tbsp Chinese rice wine, 120ml (½ cup) beef stock and the remaining 1 tsp of black pepper. Stir together to combine then put to one side.

9. Coming back to the wok, add in the 2 minced cloves of garlic and the 1 tsp of minced ginger to the vegetables. Cook for 1 minute, stirring often.

10. Add in the sauce we mixed in the jug to to the wok and stir together. Let it come to a gentle simmer. If it looks too thick you can add in a splash of water.

11. Add the steak back to the wok and stir through to coat in the sauce. Cook for a further 2 minutes to heat the steak back through.

12. Serve the black pepper beef over boiled rice.
