Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 300g beef (thinly sliced, sirloin or flank)
  • 2 tbsp honey (natural)
  • 3 cloves garlic (minced)
  • 3 tbsp soy sauce (natural)
  • 1 tbsp vegetarian Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar (natural)
  • 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tsp natural gelling agent

Optional Garnish

  • 2 green onions (freshly sliced)

Instructions

  1. Prepare and Marinate the Beef: Thinly slice the beef against the grain to ensure tenderness. Marinate briefly in a mixture of soy sauce (natural), minced garlic, and a splash of apple cider vinegar to infuse flavor and help tenderize.
  2. Mix the Sticky Sauce: Whisk together honey (natural), vegetarian Worcestershire sauce, brown sugar (natural), apple cider vinegar, water, and natural gelling agent until well combined. This sauce will thicken nicely when cooked.
  3. Sear the Beef: Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Quickly sear the beef slices until browned but still juicy, avoiding overcooking.
  4. Combine Beef and Sauce: Pour the sticky sauce mixture over the seared beef in the skillet. Stir continuously to allow the sauce to thicken and coat each slice with a glossy, sticky glaze.
  5. Garnish and Serve: Once the sauce is thick and bubbling, sprinkle freshly sliced green onions on top. Serve immediately while warm for the best flavor and texture.

Notes

  • Slice beef as thinly as possible for quick cooking and optimal tenderness.
  • Maintain a hot skillet to sear beef properly without burning.
  • Stir the sauce continuously to prevent clumping and ensure even thickness.
  • Add the natural gelling agent gradually to control sauce texture and avoid pastiness.
  • Finish with fresh green onions or toasted sesame seeds for added texture and color.
