Note

For best results, slice the beef thinly against the grain to ensure tenderness.

If using frozen vegetables, thaw and drain them thoroughly before adding to the wok to prevent steaming.

You can substitute oyster sauce with hoisin sauce or extra soy sauce for a vegetarian option.

Serve over steamed jasmine rice or noodles to soak up the flavorful sauce.
