• 1/2 teaspoon sugar

Instructions:

1. Marinate the Beef:

   • In a bowl, toss the thinly sliced beef with 1 tablespoon soy sauce and 1 teaspoon cornstarch. Let it sit for 10-15 minutes.

2. Cook the Beef:

   • Heat 1/2 tablespoon oil in a large pan or wok over medium-high heat.

   • In the same pan, add the remaining 1/2 tablespoon oil.
   • Sauté the sliced onions until soft and slightly caramelized (3-4 minutes).
   • Add the garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.

4. Scramble the Eggs:

   • Push the onions to one side of the pan and pour in the beaten eggs.
   • Scramble until just cooked, then mix with the onions.

5. Stir-Fry the Rice:

   • Add the cooked rice and break up any clumps.
   • Stir in the soy sauce, oyster sauce, sesame oil, black pepper, and sugar.
   • Mix well to evenly coat the rice with the seasonings.

6. Add the Beef & Finish:

   • Return the cooked beef to the pan and mix everything together.
   • Stir-fry for 2 more minutes, allowing the flavors to combine.

7. Garnish & Serve:

   • Sprinkle with chopped green onions and serve hot!
