My daughter loves make dishes from other cultures. This dish was delicious and easy to make with simple ingredients on hand.
Bo Luc Lac Beef
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- Juice of one lime
- 7 tablespoons minced garlic or 10 cloves of garlic, minced, divided
- Ground pepper to taste
- 2 pounds sirloin cubed
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 1 large onion sliced
- 2 scallions sliced, to garnish
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the brown sugar, soy sauce, lime juice, 8 cloves of garlic, salt and black pepper to taste. Add the beef and let it marinate for 1 hour.
- Preheat a wok over high heat.
- Add the vegetable oil and, when simmering, add the remaining 2 cloves of garlic.
- Once fragrant, add the beef cubes, working in 2 to 3 batches if needed.
