Critical Success Points

  • Marinate the meat with baking soda to ensure a very tender texture.
  • Sear the beef quickly over medium heat to avoid drying it out.
  • Do not overcook the onion so it retains its crunch.
  • Add sesame oil at the end of cooking to preserve its aroma.

Safety Warnings

  • Handle raw meat with separate utensils to avoid cross‑contamination.
  • Hot oil can splatter; use a partial lid or a splatter screen.
