Cooking

  1. Combine all the marinating ingredients in a medium-sized bowl and mix well.

  7. Transfer the garlic to a plate and set aside.
  8. Reserve the garlic oil in the pan.

  10. Let the bottom cook without touching until turning golden brown, 2 minutes or so.
  11. Flip to cook the other sides, until most sides have browned and the inside is still a bit pink (the beef will continue to cook until done in the sauce).
