stir-fried beef with oyster sauce
March 11th, 2010
You possibly will not think it is possible to lose weight while on a diet plan which includes stir-fried beef with oyster sauce but it is achievable. It is fundamental to not eat stir-fried beef with oyster sauce or other high calorie beef/pork/lamb/veal every day but in moderation.
As an example, I allow myself rich food one meal per week. I eat a calorie controlled diet 6 days a week, say 1400 to 2000 calories per day, and then 1 day, I eat what I please - within moderation of course.
I have been eating this way for the last 4 weeks and it has aided me to lose 5 kilos. I have not changed my exercise habits or taken any pills or diet food. I have just been aware of what I eat most days of the week and then eat whatever I like one day a week.
I also feel it helps to have professional support when dieting and for that I registered with the Biggest Loser club. They have lots of tools to help you monitor your progress and achieve your goals.

1 pound lean beef steak
1 tablespoon light soy sauce
2 teaspoons sesame oil
1 tablespoon Shaoxing rice wine or dry sherry
2 teaspoons cornstarch
3 tablespoons peanut oil
3 tablespoons oyster sauce
1 1/2 tablespoons finely chopped scallions, to garnish
Cut the beef into slices 2 inches long and 1/4 inch thick, cutting against the grain of the meat. Put them into a bowl. Mix in the soy sauce, sesame oil, rice wine or sherry, and cornstarch. Let the meat marinate for 20 minutes.
Heat a wok until it is very hot, then add the peanut oil. When it is very hot and slightly smoking, add the beef slices and stir-fry for 5 minutes or until lightly browned.
Remove the meat from the wok and drain well in a colander set over a bowl. Discard the drained oil. Wipe the wok clean and reheat it over a high heat. Add the oyster sauce and bring it to a simmer. Return the drained beef slices to the wok and toss them thoroughly with the oyster sauce. Turn the mixture on to a serving platter, garnish with the scallions, and serve immediately.
