Black Pepper Beef

Stir-fried Beef with black pepper, bell peppers and onions

This black pepper beef dish is one of my favourite Chinese beef stir fry.  The family get loads of satisfaction every time I cook this, where the only ‘complaint’ I will get is that I did not cook enough. I’m quite confident that everyone who try this dish will like it! We really lick up everything (from the gravy to the sliced ginger) on the plate! And the black pepper marinade recipe can be used for stir frying other meats such as chicken, if you do not take beef.  This recipe is courtesy of my friend Joyce, who is always so patient to impart her culinary expertise to me. Thanks for sharing this wonderful recipe with me, Joyce.
