# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Throw the potato slices into salted boiling water for 5 minutes, then drain and let them dry well. Put oil into a pan and heat it over medium-high. Fry the slices until both sides are golden and crunchy, roughly 4-5 minutes on each side. Drain them on paper towels before sprinkling on garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.
02 -
Combine the sliced beef with soy sauce, cornstarch, and a bit of black pepper in a bowl. Heat some oil in a hot pan, then toss in the beef. Brown the pieces in 2-3 minutes, then take them out and set them aside.
03 -
Using the same pan, toss in garlic, onion, and chili (if you’re using it). Stir it all for about 1-2 minutes until it smells amazing. Add your red and green peppers next and cook for another couple of minutes.
04 -
Whisk together dark soy sauce, oyster sauce, hoisin (if using), sugar, and the beef stock or water. Pour this mix into the pan, add the cornstarch slurry, and stir well. Put the cooked beef back in, mixing everything for 1-2 minutes until it’s all coated in a shiny sauce.
05 -
Serve the crispy potato slices on the side of the flavorful beef stir-fry. Time to dig in and enjoy every bite!
