Tips

  • Ideally, get thinly sliced beef, or cut ribeye into thin slices.
  • You can substitute Asian pear with apple, pear, or kiwi to tenderize the beef.
  • You can substitute mirin with rice vinegar and sugar.
  • For cooking, spread the beef into a flat layer in the wok and don't touch it until all liquid cooks out.
  • Sauté aggressively once the liquid is gone to get a nice barbecue color.
