Preheat the pan over medium-high heat and add a little oil.

Add the onion and the white part of the green onion to the hot pan and stir-fry until the raw taste is gone; season with sugar and salt, then remove from the pan.

Add more oil to the pan and add the beef, spreading it out to pan-fry until the bottom is slightly brown, then stir.

Add the garlic and stir-fry until mixed evenly with the beef, cooking until the beef is about 70% done.

Add rice wine to the edge of the pan to bring out the aroma, then add dark soy sauce and oyster sauce, mixing well.

Add plain water to thicken the sauce, then add crushed black pepper and all the onions back to the pan, stirring to combine.
