1

Finely mince 5 cloves of garlic.

2

Cut 1/4 of an onion into strips, breaking apart the onion.

3

Take 2 green onions, split the stem part in half lengthwise, and cut into 2-inch sections.

4

Peel 1 potato and cut it into slices, then soak in cold water to prevent browning.

5

Cut beef from a chai tea roast into slices against the grain.

6

Marinate the beef with soy sauce, dark soy sauce, a little sugar, baking soda, some water, and cornstarch; mix thoroughly and add a touch of oil.

7

Prepare a cornstarch and water mixture by mixing cornstarch with cold water until clump-free.

8

Add oil to a hot pan over medium-high heat and stir fry the onion for about 40 seconds to remove the raw taste.

9

Spread the potato slices in the pan, season with salt and sugar, and pan-fry until golden brown on the edges.

10

Add water to the pan, cover with a lid, and let the potato cook for 2 minutes.

11

Check if the potato is cooked through by cutting a piece with a spatula; if it cuts easily, remove it from the pan.

12

Add more oil if needed and stir fry the beef until golden brown on the bottom.

13

Add minced garlic to the beef and stir fry until the beef is about 70% done.

14

Season the beef with soy sauce, dark soy sauce, and a little sugar, and stir fry until the color is even.

15

Add water to the pan to create a sauce, then add the cooked potato and onion back to the pan.

16

Gently toss everything to mix together, then add the cornstarch and water mixture to thicken the sauce, stirring to combine.

17

Add green onions and crushed black pepper to the pan, mixing everything evenly.
