You can use "Beef Fillet" or as I did "Rump Steak". Cut the meat in fine thin stripes and put it in a bowl.Add the following ingredients:

½ Tsp Rice Wine

1 Tsp Cornflour

½ Tsp Light Soy Sauce

2 Tbsp Brown Sugar

And HERE the SECRET ingredient:

Add 1 Tbsp Sodium bicarbonate as it makes the meat very tender.

Mix everything with the hands and put the bowl with the meat marinade into the fridge for +/- 1/2 hour - 1 hour.

IMPORTANT: Do NOT put salt on the meat!! Because of the sauce with Soy the meat will get enough salty taste ;)

Preparation of the Vegetables

Meanwhile as the beef is into the fridge you can already prepare the vegetables. In my case I was choosing:

Bamboo shoots

1/2 green pepper

1 onion

5 spring onions

Chop the green (or red) pepper into fine slices.

Chop the onion into fine slices.

Chop the spring onions into +/- 1 inch slices and separate the white parts. The green parts will ONLY get used at the end of the cooking.

Take the WOK-pan, put some Sesame oil in it and cook the vegetables one apart the other for +/- 2 minutes and live them in a bowl separately.

Do the same with the Ginger and the garlic.

Preparation of the Meat
